7685 passed to Darwen Mini Coaches after ten years with Merseybus in 1997.

It was sold to STT Training in July 2002 where it remained as a training bus until November 2006. Then it was bought for preservation by three members.

It is believed to be one of only two ex-Merseyside Dodges left, the other having been converted to a mobile home.

More detailed history to follow soon.
