Has anything replaced it on the school run it does or as that now finished?

Thanks

Anything goes on the School route now its usually a spare Enviro 400 if there is not one of them they will use two MPDs, would not surprise me if they get one of those Ex Midlands Decker's onto the road now.

They may even send 0002 down here, time will tel

People go on about the cadets but Arriva have certainly had their money's worth out of them.
