Re: Vehicle Replacements 2024

StreetLite 47631 has just been transferred here according to bustimes.org :cry: Excuse me for "quoting myself" but but I think it's appropriate to add here that 47640+42 have now also been added. A photo of them at WR has just appeared on Facebook. :cry: :cry:

Vehicle Replacements 2024

I don't like what I see on bustimes.org -- that as well as ALL the Mercedes Citaros, 66691 has also been withdrawn, - so far presumably replaced by one of the inherited short Street-Lites.

Re: No Salt Road buses on the 144 today.

If bustimes.org is to be believed, the last Merc in Nimrod livery has now been withdrawn.
