28040 - Dans_bus_photos - 09 Oct 2020

Does anyone know why 28040 has not returned to service yet? 

There is a blue gas bus parked in the end shed around the back of the depot (in front of where 22019 is parked) which im assuming must be 28040.

Also, will 28031 be repaired or has it been written off?

Id be surprised if 28031 has been written off given its age and that it only appears to have front end damage. Cant see why it wouldn't be repaired. Did it get impounded after the accident?

Didnt even know 28031 was in an accident,but i dont see it being written tbh,if it were older then probably, its probably just pending investigation,then i'd imagine once repaired it'll be off the the paint shop and painted into the new livery

I believe there is a gas bus VOR awaiting an engine replacement. So possibly could be 28040

Have you heard what happened about 39721 on September 19th shields depot the bus caught fire but confined to the engine bay. I think it got repaired and is back out on service!

It was at the coachworks prior to lockdown awaiting repair

Does anyone know where 39721 is last I heard it was back in service after fire in the engine compartment, I was told there was not much damage at the back!

I did wonder .... the obsession with vehicles at South Shields was a bit of a clue!

I have read somewhere that 28031 has been sighted at ADL's Plaxton Anston workshops.
