I must be having an off day as I can't see the correlation myself.

I should imagine, with a little bit of thought having read other posts, they're in the process of being re-numbered. Take a look at the full listed posted on the previous page of this thread.

Well, that's what I get for skim-reading the first few entries. Apologies. Begs the question as to why they are renumbering the whole batch as opposed to just slotting KTC on the end though. Either chassis numbering or the fact that KTC is on a 62 plate could be reasoning, I suppose.

RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot
