Rock Ferry do almost all the repaints - Gillmoss has only painted a few of its own buses of late. As far as I know in the last 12 months Gillmoss has painted 24136, 24177, 24179 & 47328 - all others done at Rock Ferry.

15305 I'm not sure on - apparently it isn't at Rock Ferry being repainted so don't know where that has gone to get done!

It's still sitting in the dockshop at Preston, fully rubbed down and repanelled. It's been there in that condition for weeks now, but I've no clue what's happening with it other than it's being painted in to a heritage Ribble livery.

A new arrival here is ADL Enviro200 36862 (GN13 EXU). At least, I think it's that one! It's currently in the dockshop with RMS legal lettering applied but I don't know whether it is intended for Preston or is destined for elsewhere.

It can't be 36862 it is tracking on the 7 Canterbury - herne bay.

Well, I did say I thought it was that one! It's definitely one of that batch though.

Of course, the ticket machine from 36862 might have been quickly swapped on to another bus in the fleet without the details being changed...
