It's was 2485 and an open top I believe

Just looked at the video i can certainly identify the Cadet as 2485 CX04AYC and the other vehicle definitely being 3992 T305FGN, which has just moved their correct me if im wrong?

Unfortunately 2485, was a brilliant cadet and along with the open top yes :-(

Looks like another Open Top may have to be sourced out of somewhere possibly a DLP or VLW are the last options.

I don't know where the extra open top will come from. I'm not sure how many buses bangor have given away to other depots I.e rhyl, chester and Wrexham for the gha routes. Does anyone know, I know 4187 and 4190 has gone to cover the 82 to northwich

There will be a bus coming from Maidstone open top to cover the loss of the open deck
RE: Arriva Buses Wales - Bangor Depot - LJ51 DDA - 16/07/2016 21:07
It will probably more than likely be Arriva Kent & Surreys 8001 V304KGW unless of course they send a decker up to be converted, i'll try get some more info on the situation

Another option in the short term is to use a Lowlander over at Pwllheli as the college requirements will be done with them now at Bangor until September.
ARRIVA Midlands have lots of DLAs about to head for disposal due to new Enviro400's in Leicester so perhaps one could be converted. ARRIVA Midlands, Oswestry depot 4788 S214 JUA is due to be replaced shortly by an expected Lowlander for the contract due to it not been DDA, perhaps been close to Wales and Merseyside already a good option if they want to replace 3992 or keep the same type.
