X446FGP has been sold to another operator in Merseyside 17/01.

T728OEF was out on the Manchester Victoria to Rochdale Rail Replacements today, a very nicely kept bus with a very friendly driver, who seemed enthusiast friendly, gave me a wave and slowed down to allow me to get a better shot.

Don't Stagecoach insist that buses in their livery are debranded before entering service with another operator? I'm pretty sure when a Stagecoach livered bus crashed in the West Midlands still in Stagecoach Cumbria livery that the company operating the service got in to trouble with Stagecoach.

No as this is a semi-preserved bus, and is in a former livery
