The London Borough of Ashford?

[JFO]

Transport UK Buses/Abellio has recently begun storing some vehicles in a yard next to the Sevington IBF truck stop in Ashford, and when I drove past on the 21st, 7 or 8 Caetano Electrics were stored there: https://www.flickr.com/photos/69558134@N05/55053218827, along with ex ASD Coaches Solo YJ57EHP and an ex Arriva Thameside E200 GN58BUP, both of which maybe awaiting use by a PCV Traning School.

An artical from Kent Online reports this yard is being used by Go-Coach, who plan to start running services in the area. Explaines why TUK buses are being stored in there, as The Bus Doctor seem to do a lot of work on TUK vehicles.

When I drove by again on Feb 28th the TUK London Caetano Electrics now number about 20 vehicles, while the ex ASD Coaches Solo YJ57EHP and ex Arriva Thameside E200 GN58BUP, have been joined by TUK E200 8528 YX59BYW and at least 3 ex Warrington's Own Buses 13 plate Versa's.

The 3 ex Warrington buses are for Go bus - a 4th one has already been painted in livery. The yard is owned by them and is principally being used for storage of vehicles for Transport UK
