Yes, 36003-3606 A3/4/5/6 UOB although it is likely they will be shortly reregistered.

I don't think they'll be for Premiere work, the only routes that they took on were the uni hoppers which are run by vehicles from Premiere. Two of the citylink Citaros were formerly spares so I'd imagine that these will now fulfil this role, two have been in service at the Tuxford depot

Speaking of the Tuxford depot, there are rumours that this is soon to shut. I don't know how true this is or whether the work will transfer to Heanor or be surrendered.

The ex. Premiere vehicles are:
1401 SN10 CDE ADL Enviro 200
1402 SN10 CDF ADL Enviro 300
1403 SN10 CDK ADL Enviro 300
2101 BK10 MFU Wrightbus Eclipse Gemini
2102 BK10 MFV Wrightbus Eclipse Gemini
3601 BK10 MFX Plaxton Centro
3602 BK10 MFY Plaxton Centro

All are branded for the Uni hoppers, although one of the ADL Enviro 300s carries a slightly different livery as it was repainted into Premiere livery and then put back into Uni hopper livery after the introduction of the route to Derby hospital

Why is the Tuxford depot closing?

I've heard 'politics' with Nottinghamshire County Council, the depot will shut during March.

Solar A4 UOB is now in service in Yourbus livery


RE: Yourbus - tbone - 31/03/2013 13:54

The Tuxford depot shut its doors yesterday, with the routes either being replaced, part replaced or scrapped all together. The two eclipses (A5/6 UOB, still in their former operator's livery) and the Citaros are thought to be heading to Heanor whilst the double deckers are expected to be sold.

A3 and A4 UOB are both in full livery and work out of Heanor, they spend most of their time on the Y29.

Yourbus are taking over the 110/111 services between Ashbourne and Matlock from TM Travel, and are likely to use door forward streetlites. At least one of these is in full livery.

A very mucky 1204 can be seen here in Matlock on the newly won 110 route, for which it is branded. A number of other wheel forward streetlites have been repainted, such as 1205

2103 (FJ57 CZB) is now in service in this new version of the uni hopper livery.

The second hand citaros that were in service at Tuxford are for sale.

One of the Enviros has been done too, I think its CDF. All the current uni fleet as well as one of the eclipses will be painted into this scheme.

Here is SN10 CDF in the new uni hopper livery
