It came Joint first with Rosso. I was part of the team that presented it at BDoY. 2800 won a few years back and 3137 from runcorn came 2 nd in 2012 but the last 2 years its been green lane buses. Last year it was 3154 and 3155, this year it was 3159 and 3164. Dont know if anyone has noticed the last marshall in the NW fleet has gone from green lane

7660 was indeed the last Marshall although it hadn't carried paying passengers for a good year.

Presume 7675 the last bus new to MPTE went to Barnsley and was not preserved because of its
condition, with 7653 7656 being kept,last one owned by Jorden
