Only the most reliable and fuel efficient buses are running. Why would you then revolve that? There could be a few buses which revolve if something major like a crash or major engineering issue happens but it would be exceptional circumstances. |

First time in years now too that every service bus at Gillmoss is in beachball livery. Nothing in service is in any overall advert, branding or any other livery. buses7675 http://dartslf.com/ Light up, light up as if you have a choice,

So in that case it made sense,. |

One incredible allocation we missed at the time from earlier in the week but I was tipped off about ADL Enviro400MMC 10836 SM66VBF on the 97/97A/98/98A (Kirkby Circular!) https://bustimes.org/vehicles/42260?date=2020-04-29 buses7675 http://dartslf.com/ Light up, light up as if you have a choice,

RE: Stagecoach MCSL - Gillmoss Depot
Various SORN buses have been pulled out from where they were parked today, mainly 105xx deckers. Not checked them all but at least 10534 VKB708 & 10536 SN16ONA are taxed now, I would expect all the 105xx will probably be taxed and back on the road again shortly. buses7675 http://dartslf.com/ Light up, light up as if you have a choice,

RE: Stagecoach MCSL - Gillmoss Depot
Is it true that from tomorrow all services from Gillmoss will be mainly operated by double deckers for the first time in ages with virtually not many or no single decks out in service at all? |
