Diamond have two New Streetlights SO65LRJ and SO65 LSC and the older 63 plate one. Wonder if the Versa was displaced by the 6 New Streelights at Preston?

There currently appears to be confusion with the registrations, fleet numbers & allocations with the batch of Rotala Streetlites. BLOTW have them listed as Preston, West Midlands Bus Photos have 32212-19 as Redditch. UK buses have some different registration/fleet number combinations which also conflict with the previous two sites. Has anyone a definitive list for these vehicles? I realize that some of these will fall outside of the scope of this forum but I'm wondering about the six new Sreetlites at Preston as stated above.

32220 is S065LSC 32211 is SO65LRJ both at Atherton
32212 (SO65 LRK); 32213 (SO65 LRL); 32215 (SO65 LRN); 32216 (SO65 LRV); 32217 (SO65 LRW); 32218 (SO65 LRX); 32219 (SO65 LRY) Are at Redditch
Suggestions on the GMbuses yahoo page that the Tender wins in Ormskirk may be run by Atherton

According to one of the drivers I know at Atherton Depot it is indeed Atherton going to be running the Ormskirk locals as he's been route learning them recently so exicting times ahead for Atherton Depot who will have a bigger operating area

It looks like Diamond Bus might have posted some changes on their Facebook page a couple of days ago before removing it, going off the broken links on their Twitter feed.
Nothing on their website, which is now back at the new address: http://www.diamondbusnorthwest.co.uk/

A number of the Timetables on their Website are out of date as well..

A post elsewhere states the hybrid Versas at Preston are to be sold once displaced by new Streetlites so the one here is probably temporary.
RE: Diamond Bus North West (formerly South Lancs Travel) - SLTRegular - 31/03/2016 23:52
Remember that 30912 was sold and then bought back Rotala are hardly decisive with their movements

Former Diamond bus OP07ARE has been reported to be in Gibraltar! Baring in mind they drive on the wrong side of the road i'm puzzled by this
I've since discovered this was prior to it's time at Diamond but still good to know
