A lot of old First Provincial (including ex London TN/L) buses heading to the scrapyard as expected unfortunately, especially for Euro 3 B7RLE 66760 (YJ05WVB) and 66797 (MX05CBY) which both were fantastic buses with tons of character to enjoy that I rode on my trip to Essex back in February this year for their Euro 3 Volvos.
I'd see 36665 is back for sale, any chance of Stagecoach London on buying the bus back seeing it's still dual door and also to replace fire damaged 37530.

Any idea why 36665 was withdrawn in the first place?

Any idea why 36665 was withdrawn in the first place? Wasn't that because of the loss of the 549? I didn’t even realise it had been withdrawn! I knew it went to NS instead of WH but assumed it stayed in service after the 549 was lost. I wonder why it never saw further use in London or elsewhere within Stagecoach.

I wonder why it never saw further use in London or elsewhere within Stagecoach. AIUI it's the current SLN business model: lease everything and return anything that's not needed when a contact is lost/changed. Was there a contract that needed one 17-reg sd in 2022? Assume not, so return it off lease.

Really nice hybrids vehicles! All going for scrap does not bode well for the electric revolution in my eyes. Vehicle batteries and what to do with them I can see as being the next ecological disaster the world has to face.

As was mentioned by Andy Metcalfe, they really like to keep the fences occupied within depots. No surprises to see that they were withdrawn but slightly concerned about the Streetlites given there has been a very large push across FirstGroup to push out euro 3 stock

Basically means they spend quite a lot of time off the road rather than on it. One of Essex's repainted examples took absolutely ages to re-enter service following its repaint into Shuttles livery

No surprises to see that they were withdrawn but slightly concerned about the Streetlites given there has been a very large push across FirstGroup to push out euro 3 stock Reason for them leaving is they've reached the end of their leases like the Slough Enviro200s, presumably it's more cost-effective for them to let them go. They reach the end of the lease and end up selling them themselves?
