1540 was towed back to Heckmondwike by Sparrows on Thursday don't know what went in its place as was waiting for them to two broken down Selby buses to Castleford Was it 1540 you saw, as that’s been back for a week or so now. Could have been 1536, as that was the last one due back and was in service Friday afternoon. All of Hecky’s DB300’s are done now, 1516/18 at Dewsbury should be next to go.

1021 has left BI for refurbishment 16/01/23. Believe it has gone somewhere in Derby. which 1021 though the 14 reg mini e200 or the Merc they had for route learnings. Merc Sprinters 1020/1021 arrived at BI (1020 also in use at CA during the same period) 02/22 with one replacing the other They were not here at the same time and barely lasted a week each. They returned to AMW in the same month. There were also I believe Mercs 1018 and 1022 here around the same time (02/22, but not believed together) all for the purpose of route learning at both depots although at least one was noted several times in revenue service but had no working blinds or ticket machine and had to use stand 24 all the time in WBS due to the vehicles door position. 1022 still currently resides at BI protected with a rather thick layer of dust awaiting return to its 'owners' Repaints mentioned in the '1000' fleet numbers refer to the E200's and NOT the Merc Sprinters which carried the same numbers as part of the ANW numbering scheme Penfold

I was just thinking then the mercs must be numbered the same as the e200s but obviously for ANW however it.must have been confusing to see two buses with the same fleet number lol

Just curious what is the plan for the repaints overall for AY? As for Wakefield as an example, they painted some pulsars then they started painting the mini E200s but there is still some pulsars that need painting.
And just wondering as well, I have been on 1454 today and they claimed that they have USB ports but I couldn't see any, does any of the refurbished pulsars for Castleford have USBs?

It is baffling that the e200's are being sent away now like with everything you've mentioned. From what I saw, it should have been the geminis sent away after the frequenta pulsars and then make a start on the other pulsars (1495 included). As for the 59/61 plate pulsars, I've already questioned it with the relevant people and it's believed to be a vinyl error and should be getting rectified - atleast I hope, I put together photographic evidence and details of what was wrong for them. None have USBs apart from the ex frequenta ones.
