2320 as now been withdrawn as on pits with no dests,ops or tax discs and by looks of it having engine parts removed.
Along with this 7622 front end as been removed and fitted to one of st helens marshalls which could possibally mean the end of the road for 7622.

I dont think there is any probably about it mate, I think it's safe to say it won't be returning to service seeing as all Marshalls are leaving this year.

Its about time that the fate of 7622 was sealed, every now and then a forum member or two has suggested that this will see the road again and this has been going on a while. Like Danny has said in he Speke thread the marshalls are likely to go this year, the sooner the better would be nice. Just think in the single decker lines, after the the T & V platers have gone amongst the buses to depart after will be the X-ANC darts.

as well as the X reg darts you also have the X reg cadets and X reg b10bles which was brought in service a little bit later than the X*** ANC darts wasnt they.

Im just wondering whats going to replace the T*** PNB darts at st helens as they are starting to get withdrawn from this month.

The X-ANC will probably go at the same time at the Renowns as they are of a similar age. Be sad to see the Volvo's go but great to get rid of the Urban 90's on the X-ANC's.

More Marshalls from Green Lane! I can hope... Probably a reserve T-PNB being brought back into service again as 2320 has probably had a fault of some kind.

Odd to think the X-ANCs are nearly 15, remember them when nearly new and they weren't bad then but some are absolutely awful now. Be an interesting few years with all these buses going out!

Noticed almost all of the Saints RLFC branded bussses have had players removed off the rear windows, are they getting replaced by any?
