Scania's 15905-15913

These services currently have Tridents on them. Will they be transferred elsewhere?

Personally I doubt it, PR have been short on vehicles recently so the P-AYJ Darts and S-KCW B10BLEs will be withdrawn and go back into reserve respectively.

The Tridents are returning to Chorley for TfGM school contracts.

Unless it has changed again recently, the 55reg Tridents from 59/61 will be going onto 68, with 8 04reg Tridents from 68 moving to Chorley with Dart 34620. That will then allow Chorley to lose 16651-16654, 21109 and 33472 to reserve, and 17018, 17019 and 17021 back to Morecambe where they'll replace 3 Olympians.
This is subject to change again.

17018,19 and 21 from chorley and the 4 Scanias from lillyhall, thats the volvo olympians(16645,60,63,64,65 and 67) and 21007 withdrawn and spending time on the back fence for a while then.

Surely the Scanias will not be moving from Lillyhall as they are branded for the 300 and with competition from Reays, it would not be a good idea to move them!

The Reays Competition is over, plus Lillyhall are getting 4 Gold-spec examples during the summer to replace them.
