(05 Nov 2017, 4:35 pm)Dan On paper, once the Mercedes Citaro refurbishment programme is completed (so late January).
The transfer of 5201 and 5202 to Riverside has no bearing on the withdrawal of any further elderly Volvo B10BLE or Scania L94 from Riverside.
Possibly worth mentioning that one of the main reasons why 4898 has been withdrawn so soon is because a buyer has already expressed interest in taking 4898. Another example of its kind saved for preservation, joining 4855 and 4897.
