And further details thanks to Phil Stockley:
- All 6 have already been converted to single door prior to delivery
- YN56FDV and 2 others will be entering service more-or-less upon completion of delivery checks in as-delivery condition due to a decker shortage following the withdrawl of a number of Olympians due to chassis corrosion (a common fault with Volvo Olympians)
- The other 3 will be repainted prior to entering service (and possibly also treated to a re-trim)
- These 3 will then swap with the other 3 to allow them to be repainted
- Solo SR 506-8 and Solos 1194/1202 are to be branded for 'Line 6' very shortly
