(18 Oct 2015, 3:00 pm)R852 PRG wrote I'd have thought the remainder of Percy Mains' ex-Oxford B10BLEs could possibly be phased out by the end of the year if a few transfers take place. If not, they'll have to be modified to become DDA-compliant. I don't think the 28/28A are desperately in need of new(er) buses at this stage, and I predict 4956-4960 will spend the rest of their working lives on the routes. They are 52-reg, which makes means they are thirteen years of age. Their shelf life is only around 16 years I believe, so only a few more years until they are expected to be withdrawn. Then, perhaps, the 28/28A could see new buses.
True, that happened with TOON LINK and LIME
