Bought for spares or resale as too long for their work.

How many vehicles were actually sold at the Auction? Obviously we know about the ones Pilkington bought but did any others get sold?

76 is actually a former Stagecoach Dart 10.7 m 35218, so is not an Mpd. Think 26 is another ex Stagecoach 10.7m dart but not sure which one.

What is the difference in size between the darts Pilkington already have 26/76? Could they be to replace their Ex GHA darts?

The MCVs, I don't know as they are quite long aren't they?

Hello all,

Does anyone know what's happening with the depot building itself?

Not sure they said publicly on their Facebook page that non were for service with them, that might change who knows.
