Fleet News: 04/01/2016
There have been no changes to the fleet this week.
(04 Jan 2016, 1:03 pm)R852 PRG 8250 and 8251 have been withdrawn, they aren't used as driver training vehicles, unlike 8242-8248. They'll be sold when a buyer is found, or alternatively sent for scrap.
Withdrawn former ''Toon Link'' Volvo B10BLE 5144 left Saltmeadows Road for scrapping in Barnsley today.
Certainly not a slow news day today...

(04 Jan 2016, 5:29 pm)Dan Not a huge issue either, as it's just programmed as a route number only display instead of the size used on the back of an OmniCity. Would meet DDA/PSVAR requirements regardless, as the rear only needs to be a route number only display.
