We are up to that age now aren't we so I would be surprised if they were anything but scrapped.

who decides which cadets are to go or is it done by mot expirey or mechanical faults etc.

At this age it surely has to be down to mot running out and general reliability.

All Cadets are going eventually, it comes down to MOT, faults and expence. 2428 won't be making a return due to accident damage. Now, I point out the fleet numbers I gave are what I have been told and as always this is not for definite. They are fleet numbers that engineering have given due to the buses reliability. Originally, all blinded Cadets (-2439) were first in line.

Now in regards to Myllenniums, it would make sence for the native LS' ones to return: 2451, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 60, 61, however only six of these will return according to my source. As always this can change. I hope this clears any confusion!
