Here is the PCTPG update from May 2016
214’s brakes have had some time spent on them and as a result they are working a lot better. The rear brakes weren’t working at all and were completely seized up. They have now been freed and greased up. In the future, in order to be fit enough for an MOT they will need to be completely stripped but this will be done when it’s time for an MOT. The engine repairs, in particular to the diesel pump, has been finished off and a new seal had to be sourced and fitted to fix a fuel leak which had developed in it. Inside, the regency cream panelling up the staircase, as well as the crimson side panels below the upper deck windows have been sanded down, revealing some very colourful graffiti! This is in preparation for repainting during June. The original seat frames have also started to be rubbed down which is a lengthy process in itself as there are 28 to do in total. Over the next few months these will be repainted and fitted back onto the bus.
