I won't be surprised if it's unofficialy been withdrawn then still a bit surprised they even got it in the first place was it because of the problems with the 5

Actually saw 4182 in action yesterday. It worked 1450 5 Wrexham to Llangollen and 1530 return which is a 5c. Unsure whether it did anything more.

The working I saw it on is a partial school bus on the return from Llangollen so MAY be it's regular diagram M-F.

Thanks matey if you end up finding out if it is a regular diagram please let me know as Im not from Wrexham so I dont want a wasted journey to there if it isnt out in service as again its the last bus I need in the fleet.
