Noticed 33949 e400 mmc in bath city livery at the depot this afternoon, is this just visiting or staying?

Also here is 30139 in West Bus green livery.

It's a '26 reg, and has seen service in the Bristol area.

I believe it's the first Chinese built bus, and the first battery bus to appear at WR depot (?)

"UPDATE ! " Apparently lots of First DDs are moving about for a Silverstone event again.

Silverstone is a massive event for the bus industry. I've just looked on our company tracking system and at the time of writing, just under an hour before kick-off, Stagecoach have 185 buses inside the grounds of Silverstone. First and GoAhead also have a large presence, so any unusual movement is almost certainly going to be for that.
