The MOT on 8260 has now expired, but still shows up as taxed with it not due for the next month and a half.

The tax on 8266 is due in over two weeks (April 1st) and the MOT has still not been renewed.

At the moment most are not being used due to covid-19 so possibly waiting before putting them through m.o.t and retaxing.

That makes sense as been quite.a while since I last seen a training bus out and about. I would certainly never have thought of checking tax and not on them.

8255 is now parked up at Bootle alongside NFS 2537, which has recently had the 'Poppy Appeal' branding/vinyl's removed. (Original photo credit goes to ANW&W photography group)

8251 is Withdrawn somewhere else atm. not in Bangor or in Rhyl.
And 8270 needs to be added onto the list (ex 2510)

The photo had presumably came from Facebook (which I don't use), then posted in a Discord server chat (with two other members, where we discuss mostly Bustimes related stuff and post our own photos or BusTime snips instead of discussing them here. Though next time I will learn to give credit for photos if I plan to use them, and I do admit I might've jumped the gun a bit too early by posting without credit, so I admit fault. I'm just waiting on the person that posted the image to tell me who specifically took the photo so I can give the proper credit.

In future please make sure that you confirm who the image belongs to and that you have their permission before posting it
