I know WOB has lost it but I didn't know it was confirmed as moving to Stagecoach.
As for the reason, the contract was due to end anyway, not related to the driver shortage.

Cheshire West website says Stagecoach are running route from 3 Jan.

Some interesting things in the "Hybrid Saturday/Sunday Service" taking place on some days over the Christmas / New Year period referred to here:
https://www.warringtonsownbuses.co.uk/christmas-new-year-bus-times
It looks like the 5/5A service will typically involve a long 5A from Warrington to Altrincham, then a short 5A from Altricham to Lymm, then a short 5 from Lymm to Altrincham, then a long 5 from Altrincham back to Warrington.
It also looks like the 9/9A service will typically involve a 9 from Warrington to Northwich, then a short 9A between Northwich and Barnton, then a 9 from Northwich back to Warrington.

From reading social media it seems Warringtons Own have got a number of CAT branded MMC200s off the road at the moment and receiving attention at Plaxtons South Aston this will explain if anybody hasn't seen a few of them for a while now.

Looks like with the exception of YX61 ELH, the on loan vehicles have either remained at the depot since the start of the school holidays or returned to their owners. EX21 ONE is back with MP Travel and was on the X1 again last week.

PVR will have dropped over Christmas but in all honesty if the vehicles are maintained and inspected as they should be it shouldn’t take them long to MOT the vehicles that needed tests.

Yutong E12 demonstrator YD71 FKX is currently with WOB. Maybe an option they're considering as part of their plan to move to an all-electric fleet?

WOB has now got a BYD Enviro 400 EV demonstrator LC71 EFD, any recent plans on when will it be entering service at all?
