I do wonder if a few more of these Hybrids will end up at LS eventually can see 4492-4495 going to LS at some point.

Laird Street has been in need of a few more deckers for a while with saloons regularly appearing on Cross Rivers and totally inadequate mini Enviro200s kicking about. Now with the frequency reduction to the 410 and also Stagecoach reducing services or not turning up at all, the 38 in particular, LS could do with the extra capacity.

Speke ex.Kent Hybrids 4851 4852 4853 4854 are being swapped with Pulsar 2's 3029 3030 3057 3058. This is to increase capacity on the 410's.

I guess 3029, 3030, 3057 and 3058 are replacing 2600, 2606, 26008 via the hybrid move?
