I'm not a follower of stagecoach movements/fleets, but reported elsewhere is 33865 and 33869-76 going to Plymouth.

Hope this helps.

I suspect both these should read 17066 which did indeed quietly slip down the East Lancs to Merseyside a week or so ago.
Also, I suspect 33875 above should read 33874 that has been reported on a couple of sites as making it to Plymouth. 33875 was the Dart involved in a serious accident just before it was due to be withdrawn anyway, so may very well be the last to go.

Apologies regarding 17060 - I thought it was a Manchester bus. Thanks for correcting me!

Also, 17271/3 are additional examples already here from Gillmoss, with 17272/83. These are reverting to their original registrations and are being re-engined with Euro5s to satisfy forthcoming Emissions restrictions on Oxford Road.

Does anyone know what engines are being fitted? Cummins/CAT/Iveco/Mercedes?

I assume they will be fitted with Cummins engines as per the ex Gillmoss examples
