I quite like the branding - but still I'd rather see these buses in the "Hybrid Green" livery...

What vehicles are currently allocated to the 73 Tayway service - that will be displaced when the new vehicles enter service?

The engine and other mechanical components mustn't take up the whole rear of the vehicle, as the seating layout at the back of the lower deck is rather unusual/unique.

To confirm (with thanks to Paul Morfitt on 'Stagecoach Enthusiasts' Facebook Group):

Ex-Cwnbran ADL E300 27195-205 are in the process of transferring to the East Midlands fleet for Hull.
It's also been rumored that the rest of those (27189-194) will also be heading to the East Midlands fleet.

Bit strange given they are being used on European runs that they are right hand drive.

Sorry, they are left-hand drive not right. I blame tiredness. Of course, the Barcelona-London service presently uses UK-based domestic-specification Elite Is

LHD Van Hool Altano 55011-6 (HHY 177/180/187/191/195/198) have arrived at their originally intended home of Rugby depot having been replaced by LHD Van Hool Astromega 56001-9. 55011-6 are planned to go on the ME25 (London-Barcelona) once UK clearance and UK registraions etc are complete allowing Elite I 54212-9 to return to domestic work.

You could say about time, but 8 months after their replacement in Belgium, 55011-6 have finally gained their UK registrations:

55011: KX14HSV
55012: KX14HSU
55013: KX14HSO
55014: KX14HTV
55015: KX14HTU
55016: KX14HTT
