Interesting - it was November 2011 when Jackson's was last used to store withdrawn BTS buses. At least 105 different buses were stored there between 2000 and 2011. 226/375 are at Blackpool Design Coachbuilders for possible use as exhibition vehicles.

Dentonian may well get to spot his missing buses, if he is able to wangle a wander round!
