LX03 BXZ (135) is the first to have been repainted, LK05 GGV (136) is currently in the paintshop.

Do you know if the two Northern Counties bodied Arrows or Tridents 126 and X367 NNO are still with ACL?

TIA

The two Dennis Arrows are still with ACL, however are long term VOR sat in the depot at Eastham. Not sure what the plans for the future concerning them are, but it looks bleak as they are a bit worse for wear.

Trident X5 ACL (126, previously X367 NNO) was withdrawn from service towards the end of Summer last year, and is currently being stripped for spares before scrap.

Anyone able to confirm what the new AD Enviro200 is registered, seen YY67NDO and YY67UPS mentioned as possibles but both are now registered as cars.

If there’s any south gm people who fancy a look at a bci, there’s one parked in sale at the moment. Was at the town hall about 1030, but on my second loop itsmoved down broad road past the leisure centre. Not sure how long it’ll be there for mind....

Facebook reported that one of Helms Trident towed away for scrapped this morning at near Glossop Derbyshire. Reg no not sure it was X***NNO or possibly V137MEV?? Use PVS red truck.
