Last thing anyone posted on 60265 was that it was at an advanced stage of engine replacement and rear body rebuild! At Mercedes in Manchester. In saying the above though, one thing also to include is that First official sources although wont comment much on citaros but are saying 60281 and 60231 are not withdrawn just waiting for attention |

RE: First Manchester
Now here's a thought... I'm not trying to speculate anything but I've just had a thought on a possible scenario. With Wigan's Darts, Excels and B10BLEs due for replacement soon, and First wanting to offload the depot, would it be possible for First to transfer some of the newer (e.g. Y reg) B10BLEs and the Citaros over to Wigan, thus offloading the Citaros entirely? I would think deckers would be replaced with older surplus LF DDs from elsewhere within the group, with the B9s being sent to other Manchester depots to help speed up vehicle replacements a little. |
