I seen 276 on the M62 yesterday heading Westbound near to the Junction for the M6, back end looked a bit rough though!

Ive been told they where fitted accidentally and that the flipdot/matrix display will be refitted at some point. The bus has also been fitted with seatbelts, had dashboard repainted and has had work done on the entrance step.

a lot of work has been done on 0302 since the current owner has had her and yes the leds were fitted by accidentbut as said above they will be going back to the previous style. 0317 made the trip to Long Marston for Showbus 2013 yesterday and performed brillaintly.

If 276 is still in Arrivas Interurban livery then this was the bus dropping off and picking up morris dancers from Manchester at Pontins Southport this weekend.

Thanks for the photo mathias, that confirms it was 276 as I did wonder what that was on the back of it!

N275 CKB is no longer at Fairbrothers in Warrington as it was sold to a company in Bristol on Wednesday. Having driven her, she will be sadly missed. Was an absolute dream to drive..
