Bus companies cannot keep buses forever - if the bus has been replaced in the fleet, it needs to go. Depots don’t have the budget to maintain an abundance of surplus spare vehicles.
The school contract that 6942 was allocated to was converted to a coach. The school contract 3943 is allocated to requires a bus with a minimum of 70 seats, so 6942 couldn’t be allocated to this anyway.
Two spare vehicles (6086 and 6087) for a combined PVR of 12 (11x service 56 and 1x scholars) is fairly generous actually and I cannot see further vehicles being allocated in the near future.
