Thanks for the info, regarding the 2 spectras. I been meaning to ask about them, as I heard that they had been re-instated yet again. I have lost count how many times they been withdrawn, just to be re-instated.

I think the reason might be because of the rarity of the type of bus. I think when they come to the end of their lives they'll go into preservation as opposed to disposal and I think they might be trying to keep them fit for use in the future, for exhibitions, etc, hence why they haven't been used much in recent years.

I do hope that they get preservered, even if one is used for spares, to keep the other one going.
