Are these the buses that have arrived from elsewhere plus some of those in reserve or something else?

I count on my list 29 having been suplied from elsewhere in the group mostly from Scottish Subsiduaries plus some MAN's from Cambus so presumbly the odd vehicle to make 30 is either being sourced from Manchesters reserve fleet or has been sourced this week.

I would think this is likely to be whats needed to take out all the Optare Excels with immediate effect of take-over and also to establish a rapid repaint programme for all Volvo B9TL's and Volvo B7RLE's if anything else gets repainted it remains to be seen.
