Arrival of an Ex MetroBus London OmniCity - TEN 6083 - 21 Mar 2021

Guessing this’ll be used for spares for existing OmniCitys within the fleet like last time GNE acquired some ex London OmniCitys

Possible for metro shuttle? Fewer seats than standard single door on, allowing citaros to be moved to more used services

Less dupes needed. 9053/4 looked to be parked up out of use in the corner of PM.

One of them has been parked up being used as a bait bus, so I wonder if the driver training buses are required in bulk again.
