Really? After only 14 months? 4411 has lasted longer in Ribble since it's repaint.

I'd be saddened if it does get repainted, as 4661 currently is the only bus at Green Lane in the current livery.

Really? I thought it would go to depots such as Laird St, Southport, Bootle before it got taken out of livery.

I would think so as the others that had it and got repainted have lost it.
