Stagecoach MCSL - Chester & Wirral Depots

RE: Stagecoach Chester & Wirral
Jesus H. Christ, is it really that difficult to read what I wrote?

Olympians are supposed to be going white. Swoops was a mistake. They are being replaced on schools in the medium term - although I suspect there is a good chance that the contracts won't be retained. The vibe I get is that Stagecoach are keen to renegotiate.

They will not see service elsewhere in the group - as I have said they are in poor condition and there are plenty other Olys to choose from around the place. The white repaint is simply so that Stagecoach can sell them on for further use (First policy is to only sell for scrap).

Repaints are paid for by the 'owning' depot, so all this is coming out of the Merseyside budget. Carlisle are just the means by which the work is carried out - no vehicles will be coming to Cumbria other than for paint.
