It transferred to Deptford last week, although in reality it was never used and has now been withdrawn (to be returned to Optare today).

Withdrawn ?

Maybe, but still taxed and MOT'd, so no tearing hurry to withdraw it, although it should be gone in theory, with 2 Solos having come in.

I will be slightly sad when we no longer have 619 trundling around our country lanes, as the MPDs have served us well over the years - it's the end of an era . . .

Is 619 ever allocated to service 74? Tyndale Links 74 has always been a Solo recently. I rarely see a Citaro on it.
619 still very much in service today.
8307 in service at Riverside today on 67/69.
5401 has a peppa pig small advert on the back, and its cut some of the Beamish branding on it... looks daft.
