What could Preston want the Eclipses for or is it just a straight swap temporarily while the Arriva strike is on as I know that we are getting deckers to help with capacity.

I very much suspect its just a swap for capacity reasons

Is Gilmoss keeping 21260 or is it that going to preston after its MOT?

RE: Stagecoach MCSL - Chester & Wirral Depots
I doubt it'll enter service at Gillmoss, 21260 is just there for work and MOT I believe
