oh and apparently 7621 is withdrawn and left the depot, 2563 is also apparently due to arrive early next week from green lame depot

Pity about 7621 being withdrawn as I rode it last November. It may be my penultimate ex-MTL Marshall ride (as I rode 7634 at St Helens in February).

7621 was a bad one ever since its accident

3615 was on 575 on friday (one of 2 evening trips that does not do 362) cracking ride on a cracking bus

as of saturday 3615 and 3618 was withdrawn from service and 2563 was brought in from green lane

ex bootles 4030 and i think its 4065 are causing more trouble than they worth, both came here and replaced buses but none have been made fit for service due to the amount of faults, bit of a joke really.

4065 has been at Bolton since Sept 12 so could be 4063/4. I'm pretty sure I saw 4063 the other day but not certain. Thanks for the updates, be interesting to see if 2565 comes back as well.

Probably 4063 as 4064 has gone to Southport.

It is 4063, spotted in the yard yesterday. Also noticed that the majority of the school fleet was parked in the new yard together with Dart 2249. Trainer 8203 in the new livery was park in the yard next to the garage as well.
