Anyone any idea where they are going to as a couple have only recently been MOT-ed I understand?
Wexham Depot i think - Replacing older Darts, AAIK 862 & 3 Have already gone
867 and 869 not there today at 17.00 but 858 and 877 were

Funnily enough, Bowers has just registered a service 1 and 14 in Macclesfield, so there might be a slightly lesser demand for the SR's soon!
RE: Arriva North West - Winsford Depot - R311 WVR - 07/08/2012 21:06
856, 867, 869 Have all gone to Winsord Depot.
