Meanwhile another coach has left the Plymouth Citycoach fleet to join Southern Vectis:

Plymouth Citybus 309 JSK263

It is still in full red and white Citycoach livery and now carries its original registration R309STA so presumably JSK263 will soon reappear on one of the remaining coaches WA03MGE or WA03MGJ.
