), but a depot tends to only like having one vehicle missing at a time so they're not left with too much of a low spare vehicle allocation percentage.

(06 Oct 2013, 6:18 pm)Adam Malarkey Look at the Metrolink Solars, First one them was done in June which was 4 Months ago and there still not Finished, I believe 4965/66 are still to do. So really there is no time like the present to start repainting them with Saltmeadows due get Bombarded over the Next 3 Months with all the New Buses coming in. Plus you have the Saltwell Park and Drifter Versas along with a few MPD's to also be repainted in next few weeks.
Where was it confirmed that fab 56 would be repainted during mid-October as it seems early as I thought the Deckers for 56 wouldn't arrive until late this year, like December?
Edit:
