However, GX06 DXF is owned by Red Routemaster Buses owing to some Flickr research and the recent image of it was taken only yesterday.
I do personally think it’s on loan with MP doing 135 strike busters noticed G15 MPT is on the 135 so most likely swapped

Into the fleet from Dan's Coach Travel is DAF DB250 Optare Spectra YJ53VBN this will become 570 W10MPT.
On hire from Howards this week on GNW Work is Volvo B7RLE Wright Eclipse MX55FFY.

Wondered why MX55FFY showed up as MPT02 on BusTimes for GNW

Another bus coming to the X1 mainline fleet soon - see Twitter post here.
Could be an Enviro400City or Enviro200MMC from the headlight style, more likely to be the latter choice due to the low bridge situation.

Could be MP68 getting painted who knows

I could be totally wrong but one thing I thought when saw the picture on Twitter is that it looks strangely familiar to the Autonomous demonstrator?

I thought the exact same as the colour scheme seems to match. But when compared with pics of the autonomous one, the blue doesn’t go around the wheel arch like it does with the bus on the Twitter post.
Was also thinking it is similar to the CWCC Chester Park & Ride liveried Stagecoach MMCs.

Looks like busmadperson could be right here, as on BusTimes there is a pending edit to MP68 and it hasn’t tracked on the site since the 4th May. Could be anything but worth the thought.
Looking like it could be a new livery designated to the X1
