Was about to ask about the Gemini I saw in RF with the front missing last night!

Thanks to all others who posted fleet movement info.

In the last day i have seen a red single decker on the 38A , usually a Gold vehicle bastion and a solo on the 17.

Sounds like a Pix'n'mix.

It is when there is no normal vehicles available for certain routes,then anything available
will be used sometimes for a short period

there's less golds to go round since three have gone to Chester and double deckers are very slow entering service.

This broke down last week and was recovered to RF. 16957 is VOR as well. Nothing but trouble since we got them.

Wouldn't be surprised if they're withdrawn now and replaced with Enviro400s. Looks like the B7RLEs are going as well.

B7RLE's are not going anywhere. 3 of them are being allocated to mold 5's.

21256 i think it was. Also of note 19070 has had a rear advert added promoting the uni i think and we have a trident alx400 with us as well as cover for VOR gemini's. I think it is 18156 but couldn't be 100% sure.
