didn't know preston would get so many b7's I wonder if there are anymore buses to come, I've heard there's a possibility of some 65 plate deckers.

I’m not sure Rotala are after anymore deckers so soon after the StreetDeck order

Solos are being withdrawn and offered for sale.

If they do get more deckers I'd hazard a guess that they would be to replace the Scania Omnidekkas (40411/3/4/5) and remaining 3 Tridents (40630-2)

I personally wouldn’t be surprised if a few more StreetDecks are ordered or purchased 2nd hand if any are available
