Just wanted to note that Haltons back yard has just been faceliffted, so withdrawn #71 and #72
have had to be moved into the other yard. Seen #71 pacing up and down moor lane a few times, expected it to end up on a school service but I haven't seen it. Possibly just letting it losen up a bit, after all hasn't been used for over a year!
Bangor Commander 2511 is due here today, this is the one that had the major RTA and has spent a few months getting fixed at St Helens P+R Centre!
