  That's right, but I felt pity for SBS803B-SBS804Z, SBS806T and SBS810E-SBS812A. They were de-registered even before today.

  Services 2, 32 & CT18's replacements should be Mk4s unless something weird happens. I'm not so sure for 40 because they don't have that much Mk4s to go around anyway, so might put in Citaros or kope out some KUBs away from other feeders or spare fleet for 40 to solve the missing 2 buses and that WAB status once and for all.
  
  195's replacements seems like Citaros to me though..spotted many SP ones since last week when the 3 Mk3s appeared to be MIA before official de-reg date.

  Spotted 876R doing sv40 consistently on one of the mk III's slots about 2 weeks before it degreg. Possibly a perm till next month.

  Now Service 195 has short of 9 buses. I hope up to 9 Citaros will perm this service.

  Oh ok...rest assured SBS Transit got enough buses for replacements. The number of Citaros unregistered is larger compared to the living MK3s left.
