Noticed 2674 is working from Bolton, is this another transfer in or just a loan?

Are there any plans to start repaint the fleet at Bolton? Been a couple of years since a full repaint was done now and some of the pulsars are looking really patchy. Or are they waiting for the outcome franchising in Bolton?

Well, it just over a year when they could lose their routes unless they have taken on a franchise so not really worth painting buses. More likely to be a dumping ground as they will need to replace buses as the current buses are not really what in the plan for bee network if they have not walked away they would have to order buses.
