These two were swapped back to their respective depots on Friday afternoon!

It's in the depot, engine-less and partially stripped. It's also fully sanded down, presumably ready for repaint.

thank you for the update. I presume it will be out of service for a while longer then.

Were they swapped back in service or did a shunter take one up and bring the other back down? GM to Preston is a rather long way to go to do a bus exchange but probably quicker and easier. Thanks in advance.

The exchange was done when 11105 was in Liverpool in service on the X2, 15304 was driven from GM to Liverpool and replaced 11105 there - which then by the looks of it went to Liverpool ONE as the spare bus and later operated on the 204.

according to bustimes 15741 is back out after a long period of being out of service, I wonder if its in local livery.
