GM 3275 FIRST 30200 D275 JVR PVS 23RD AUG 05
After the FIRE incident she was repaired and put back to work but was earmarked along with 3274 for transfer to Edinburgh. But true to form 3275 managed yet another errant escapade. By a giganticus cokupus through a lack of proper communication, and a stand-in Saturday foreman who put 2 and 2 together and got SIX!!! LOLOLOLOLOL, a PVS driver, (there should have been two for two buses but one had a skinful the night before and was unfit) who forgot to bring the paperwork, 3275 ended up being towed to Barnsley. Even if withdrawn, it shouldnt have gone to Barnsley as it was tagged for Preservation. Not knowing there was a GC or a tag, I was there Monday morning 06.45 to rescue the registration plates, it wasnt a problem at this time, only to find out the truth, that it was going back. So I had to be content with a couple of photos, minus front wheels and propped up on a rim. It went back to Bury for some reason ( another vehicle to collect maybe??) and 3275 true to form was damaged on the way back. Windscreen, windscreen surround and framework, and radiator all suffered, the vehicle now deemed uneconomic to repair, and so was released for preservation! You couldnt make it up!!!!! LOLOL What a fine display of organisation.They havent even removed the destinations.
