I don't see it as a surprise various divisions are getting MMC's that are 8-10 years old from Manchester as it will significantly reduce fleet ages across various divisions whilst also reducing emissions with Euro 6 buses replacing Euro 3/4 Buses.

There's still quite a few Tridents with ALX400 bodywork kicking around in West.  There's persistent reports that SOME will be replaced by cascaded vehicles from Oxford, but only one, third-hand, Scania has turned up at Gloucester, and that "Some" suggests that the Tridents will be hanging around a while longer .....
