I had got so used to these as part of the Mersey bus (2 words not 1!) heritage that it seems hard to believe they are withdrawn. I caught one just in May last year, from Bebington to Upton IIRC.

Admittedly there are still the 55-reg examples, mainly at Runcorn, but these older ones have an affection of their own.

2556 and 2557 are allocated to Chester not loaned

2425 is Withdrawn and ready for Scrap at Bangor not Wrexham

2448 is Withdrawn at Wrexham

Thanks Mac - I've updated the list


RE: The DAF Wright Cadets - T42 PVM - 22/11/2015 00:11

Post 953 in the Wrexham feed showed 2557 there, most likley Withdrawn


RE: The DAF Wright Cadets - LJ51 DDA - 22/11/2015 18:49

No, 2557 and 2556 moved to Chester at the same time they were both only there to cover for refurbishments to the Solos and with 849 and 917 returning they were no longer needed and now with 852 thats why 2448 was withdrawn.

When did 2432 Get Withdrawn?


RE: The DAF Wright Cadets - wirralbus - 19/12/2015 19:21

Wonder which one is going to be the last one standing the Birkenhead one or one of the two at Chester ?
