That seems like a logical assumption to me - I'd imagine the two MPDs still here (I think?) would be withdrawn as well If these are replacing the Centros as childwallblues has suggested then what routes would the current allocation of Optare Solos be used on? I don't know much about Winsford so I don't know which routes the Solos are used on

I have to admit this is a surprise order but it does make a lot of sense. I'd imagine like the previous Mercedes-Benz minibuses operated by Arriva North West and Arriva Buses Wales these minibuses should have three digit fleet numbers (100-111?). I do think minibuses would be more than ideal for the town routes around Winsford and Macclesfield whilst using the larger vehicles for Winsford depot's busier long distance routes
