Dan's Tweet seems to imply they're theirs.

Unlike the two which were pictured at Riverside last week, these six are on long-term loan from Ensign Bus Company (to whom Lothian Buses had sold them). They will aid extra vehicle requirements, following the disposal of buses to other parts of the Group, and extra vehicle requirements (i.e. shuttle buses to Nightingale Hospital, the conversion of bus 692 to become a COVID-19 mobile vaccination bus, etc).

These are:
- 9056 (SN57 DFJ)
- 9057 (SN57 DFP)
- 9058 (SN57 DFU)
- 9059 (SN57 DFV)
- 9060 (SN57 DFX)
- 9061 (SN57 DFY)

All six are now at Saltmeadows Road, being prepared for service, ready for the increase in service levels from Saturday 10 April.
