2728 is better than 2730 but I do hope I know when they have their last days in service so I know when my last ever ride on them will be I like Darts myself but not as much as the B10s though and I already miss seeing lots of them here in St Helens even though 2730 is still going strong.

2728 has been withdrawn, was due to go in 2 weeks but died early so it is parked with 849 in the depot.

I was in Chester earlier again waiting for 2728 again (three times in three weeks) trying to get my first ride on this. Again I was unsuccessful.
2730 is sounding a bit better, engine sounds sweeter but feels to me as a passenger as if engine braking is non existent. As mm has said its still a better ride than some Pulsars.

The cooling fan is getting loud af again but 2715 was the same and that was in service for quite a while so hopefully it's the same for 2730.

Still not as loud as it was a couple of months ago though could hear it a mile off but cooling fans being loud are common on Volvos.

As reported in the St. Helens thread, all that remain are the trainers

RIP 2730, you were a god-tier bus.
