Has the Christmas bus competition been judged yet?

I was on V2279 this morning and saw XMAS2016 this afternoon...

628 is a Scania L94UB not a Merc and you will have to just wait and see what BT do.

I think he is talking about the Merc W1599.

It's actually S1599 at the moment but could be on the move to another depot soon.
