When you look at them Y reg vehicles they do look very dated these days.

They had been good workhorses in there time , cant be far off finishing there careers.

Very true! The paint work on the front looks odd! I can't work out why

Due to the dark blue bottom bit being painted higher than on other Renowns maybe?

What's happening to the buses used for the rail replacements when the trains are running through to James Street? As I assume they'll still be needed for the weekends and phase 3.
