The move of the operating centre seem well underway with the wash at the current site mostly dismantled now and a fair number of vehicles parked up at the new site. Will the operations and Maintanance both be done out of the new site now or is engineering staying in it's current hangar over the road?

One of the new buses has already had an altercation with a barrier and has gone back to Optare for repairs....I presume this one could be a temporary replacement. I'm not sure if it has luggage racks fitted though...if it doesn't it won't be much use to us.
