Aintree Coachline / Helms of Eastham
RE: Aintree Coachline / Helms of Eastham
New Enviro200 YX65 RFN will arrive here next Tuesday (6th October) and will be given the fleet number of 121. It will enter service straight away on the 272 for a few weeks in plain white. It will then receive a special City-Rail-Link livery, which will be partially created by Cheshire council.

Ex-Lothian Trident V532 ESC is currently in the yard at Eastham, helping out on schools while a few buses are off for MOT. It will return back to Aintree soon.

After a long awaited repaint, Enviro200 VE58 XKX (116) has now been painted into full fleet livery. Ironically, 116 was the first Ex-Jim Stones Enviro200 to arrive and is the last to be repainted.

Aintree are also due two Scania OmniDekka 03-plates, one has arrived in the Helms yard yesterday.

I think Scania Omnidekka 03 plate came from Ensign but not sure. I've see white 03 plate on Ensign bus dealer on website.

It is indeed. Due to YX65 RFN (121) having to be sent back to Alexander Dennis with a fault, I've been told.
