I doubt there's any shortage within the existing fleet to cover the former MCT TfGM tendered routes, any re-distribution of TfGM hybrid Solo's will need to be mutually agreed by Diamond & TfGM and will ultimately depend on what spec any tenders were awarded on.

I even wonder how many TfGM hybrids are even still being kept available for service? Apart from Free Bus with Go North West and maybe the long yellow school Versas, I can't think of any others now.

It does seem ridiculous these ex-Preston Solos still having PrestonBus instead of Diamond insignia.
