They all went to Ensign they'll find homes, Brilliant motors as is everything I've driven from Warrington. Go-ahead have purchased 4 of the 09 plates i believe, 88 is with Whippet in Cambridgeshire.

93 only went to scrap because it had heavy RTC damage to the Offside

i took down 83,85,91,227 and 233

09 plate B7s were nice quick too and in good condition as Warrington do maintain their vehicles very well.

Had absolutely no issues with any of them, 83 was the best one by a mile although 85 had a failed fuel gauge so it was a bit twitchy coming onto the M1/M25

so it did, splendid!

if anyone cares about the little details bar the scrapper and trainers the last working B7RLE to leave the yard was 233!

I was once on an 09 WOB B7 that had an issue with the door shutting properly, but they had lots of space and pretty decent seating for a bus.

Was cycling home and whilst crossing over Edge Lane by the health centre in Kensington there was a BZL out of service sitting at the lights, any idea why it would be near the city centre? Unusual to observe on a Saturday.

Here's some tracking for the MAN2 yesterday to help answer the question.

Is there a timetable for the service anywhere ?
