Saw the new Spectra training bus in Wakefield this afternoon. Very smart. Couldn't take a picture as I was driving at the time.

Selby depot seems to have an Enviro200 in the new livery. Sorry, didn't catch the FN.

Cheers yt. Wonder if another one will go also to replace the aging 261/2. Why? Those Darts are only 12½ years old - they should have a good couple of years left in them yet. They are usually only used on town services or low-profile rural routes. They are in far too good a condition to pension them off, but where could you put them that would be more suitable than pottering round the back roads of Selby?

They're reliable buses albeit a bit noisy, however they do rattle far less than E200s! No doubt they'd look great in the new blue with an interior retrim. Although, with withdrawal of the 278 there will be a couple of Enviro200s spare, which could possibly replace 261/2 at Selby. Selby depot had loads of E200s in the past. I know 261/2 are only 12.5 years old but will be oldest buses in fleet other than pool vehicles Spectras/52 Lowlanders and 499.

All six for Castleford, yes. These will replace 5 x Commanders and 1600, which will all get cascaded elsewhere. 3 x of the Commanders should go to Selby, with 499 and one DB250 to be replaced there. 1412 isn't one of the planned moves, but was on loan at Selby in the last week. Should now be back at Castleford. The DB250 from Selby plus 1600 should help move 703/723 in to pool use.
