Well, they're THEORETICALLY in use. With the usual Bustimes caveat, 82435 (7 days), 82430 (4 days), and 82411 (2 days) were out of service this morning. Additionally 82412 and 82420 appear to have failed yesterday, and 82443 seems to have failed this morning, as has 82415 (which hadn't worked on the previous 2 days).

So 14% of the batch are apparently out of service.

I posted a month ago about the unreliability of Go North West's examples at Bolton. However all 33 of them are in service for a second day today.

A Bolton driver told me there was a problem with the handbrake on a number of these vehicles. Can anyone with technical knowledge/access to feedback from Gillmoss provide more information?
