Are the loans to cover JPT buses being put into Stagecoach livery, or are there problems cpvering the ex-JPT routes. RT59 JPT was in use on Friday, still in JPT colours with the logo on the front.

I don't think 36105 is a loan it's one of several that are to move to Middleton to replace some of the MANs in poorest condition. What I don't get is if several Enviro200's move from ST to MN allowing the same number of older MANs to be withdrawn completely it dosen't actually fix the shortage of vehicles at Middleton, and dosen't free up any of the JPT vehicles for repaint.
