Minor point but I am sure this one was a WTJ rather than a WHF.

Can anyone recall which three received "Christmas Shopping Special" branding at Southport, for the 284 as it then was, at the end of 1999? I know it was three consecutive ones in the 654x series, but am hazy as to whether it was 6544-6, or 6546-8.

I have just come across this Ex MTL B10B on ebay, I just thought it would be worthy noting it.
Whether the link works is another question because I'm posting on my phone.

6582 and 6623 are no-longer with Tees Valley Coach Travel, having been sold in the summer.

The former 6618 is to be used for spare parts by a local independent operator before final disposal for scrap.
It would appear M574YEM's career with Alton Towers is over, it migrating northwards up to the much more pleasant Cumbrian countryside with Blueworks Travel of Backbarrow.

Don't think it's been noted but 6599 ended up at Stafford Bus Centre, currently researching where it may have gone from there, if anywhere. See this picture taken last year: http://www.flickr.com/photos/fulton2014/8149326710/in/photostream

EDIT: 6581 was also there: http://www.flickr.com/photos/fulton2014/8149366824/in/photostream/

It's currently on a SORN so isn't in use wherever it has gone.
