They were registered by Perth head office and sent to Newcastle for their first 6-12 months before being permanently allocated to Preston.

So, slightly off topic, presumably the same happened to 19023-30 which have the preceding SN56 registrations and are now with Stagecoach East Kent.

(I seen the 959 this morning and a First-liveried Palatine was on there.)

I used to see the Chorley 125/126 Scania deckers in Newton/Golborne on school services too, don't know if this is still the case.

Motormayhem/Sumner im referring to the Preston Allocated X2X Scania's not the 125 Chorley Allocated Scania's although the 125 Scania's are very common on Wigan College runs.
Normally the x2X Scanias are only seen locally on the M58 early morning or late vening running dead liverpool-preston or vice versa. infact there's normally one that goes through tontine at 5:40am

Picked up a Stagecoach bus times leaflet 'In and Around Fylde Coast' in the Skipton tourist info office in Skipton yesterday.
Is the 68 Preston-Lytham-St Annes-Blackpool all operated by Preston depot? I noticed there are some pre 09.00 departures from Blackpool (0633, 0653, 0718) and one from St Annes (0645) for which there does not appear to be an outbound in service run - so presumably there are some empty not in service runs from Preston to Blackpool?
Which depot(s) operate the 84, 86 and 89?
