2556 moved to Chester in the second half of July, so if 2557 did move at the same time, then it was back at Caego a couple of months later, being photographed in the compound on 23rd September, minus a windscreen wiper. It was reportedly still there on 8th November, and again 8 days ago i.e. around 13th Dec (according to the comment by DanPBL below the Flickr photo, though contradicted by The dude man bro).

Has anyone actually seen 2557 in service out of Chester in November or December? I'm not saying it isn't there, just that we can't assume it's there based on the fact that it was sent there at the same time as 2556.

I seen a older cadet on the ring road on Friday but I didn't identify it. Gut feeling it was probably 2556 as I seen this one out later in the day.

I know their VDL rather than daf but winsfords cadets are leaving soon for runcorn apparently. It'll be 2497/98/2499 2500/2501/2502/2503 & 2515/16

Already listed as scrapped, but relevant nonetheless.
