(05 Jul 2017, 8:51 pm)Tamesider Ah! I remember you saying some would go to ANE - just didn't know they had already gone.
It also looks like Tiger buses are beginning to be numbered in line with the main AY fleet. I noticed some Solos recently acquired were variously quoted with both 3xx fleet numbers and 100x fleet numbers. THe latter presumably to fit in with the main numbering sequences.

Not sure it has been mentioned here.
According to sources, there are no direct replacement services. Just commercial replacements and they're covering the majority of areas. Not all.
