Anyone know when the double deckers arrive at Atherton?

What double decks are due?
I have heard that there's a batch of ex Metrobus Scania East Lancs double deckers on their way, although how true this is I'm not entirely sure and what route they will be coming for I'm not sure of either

Seen photos of a couple parked up in Birmingham still in out of service condition.
5 Scania ELC Bodied Deckers supposedly for the 126/132
Yeah I'm wondering whether from timetable change at the end of the month whether Traffords (126/132) will actually work together instead of 132 working with 715s
I have always said that the 132 and 715 do not work well together, They are different routes that require different Capacity of Buses, Also worth adding the other day i was in Aspull waiting for the last commercial 715 and it never turned up, since it was a 2 hour gap until the Tendered ones start it is a bit of a joke
The main problem I find with 132/715 is traffic problems as if 132 encounters traffic anywhere on the route usually either on M60 due to the ongoing Smart Motorway works or through Hindley then it will obviously knock the timings on the following 715 with them interworking another thing is that I'm pretty sure that when 715s get to Bolton most (not sure if all) go onto to do a Bolton Circular 715 service I think it is another way of losing time on the routes
does anyone know when these deckers are coming or if they are still even coming here
