I know 6122/8 have already received the blue rear but, as you have said that the bus needs to be off the road for a week, if they are included in this 'scheme', they may have been both required to avoid the Olympians slipping out into service other than scholars which do not run onto public service work.

I can't confirm for definite, but both of these buses required bodywork repairs anyway, hence being treated to a partial repaint. It makes sense to repaint the bus while it's there anyway, as a partial repaint would only take a day to prep and paint. As I said before, the re-trimming process would take a lot more time.

As 6122 was an 'unscheduled' repaint, it wasn't re-trimmed. The same may apply to 6128, given that the priority will be to have 6143 - 6146 ready for service as soon as possible.
