(23 May 2017, 4:05 pm)Rapidsnap wrote Are anymore Omnidekkas due from Brighton. Heard that Percy Main are due two more to replace the withdrawn 3890 (Turbo) and 3891 (Chassis).

Yes - they were originally due for the revised Toon Link services, but Brighton & Hove are now unable to release them until their new buses arrive (middle to end of next month). Will now be allocated to Percy Main for the DFDS services, for fleet standardisation.

3890 isn't withdrawn yet to my knowledge - its operators disc has just been donated to 6009 which has recently transferred in from Stanley. The recent PVR increase at Percy Main means there isn't many spares, these days. 3891 has been withdrawn due to a fault with the rear axle. It is subject to being reinstated depending on whether this part is salvageable from any of the withdrawn Tridents or not.
