That's good news. I miss the R SBA Darts that we had in Wigan before the acquisition.

Is that 11 or 12 tridents OR 11 & 12 registered tridents? Which of Scotland's fleet are they coming from?

Interesting 69572/3 seen in service in Bury on a daily basis, 69575 seen in service In Bolton on a daily basis. 69571 last seen in service in Bolton just after it suddenly returned to Bolton. It is reported at Bury but has not been in service for more than a week. Plus BN report they have one in service Bury has two so not sure what's going on with 69571. Vehicles only in storage at Bolton, on paper as being there but they're Finglands buses and not Bolton Buses. I guess they did it like that until the takeover is approved by the oft



Unsure which Scotland fleet for the tridents and as I understand it between 11 and 12 buses I'd think
