Inspired by mredd. I thought I should make an account of any buses that you haven't see on the road for a while/or been in service.
I'll start off.
DW7 is missing.

Arriva LT1 - assumed away for modification.
GAL PVL63 seems to have bitten the dust in the last few days. Presumably due to the arrival of the new Enviros.

Further to that, they've departed the fleet. Thank goodness, awful buses! They weren't exactly what you'd call...quick. They were rubbish though were made when hybrids were very ropey which is why lc's early why class buses (the classification still makes me laugh) we're retrofitted with updated running gear. |
