Would anyone know if Padstow outstation has reopened for Truro College work please? Or is it still mothballed?

I know it has been said that 32639 - KP54 AZA isn't part of the kernow fleet bus does anyone know what bus this actually is as every time I go to find it changes to a different bus it was on the 251 Friday and the a3 / a2 today

Isn’t it meant to be 32638?

That's is WX05 UAH which is the co cornish gemini which is showing as having its own ticket machine
People were saying it’s green/orange chamber commerce livery one, but that was sat in Bodmin doing school runs earlier this week when the above was tracking around Penzance and st ives so not sure

Put it another way - 32639 is a busy bus as it was (according to bustimes) operating....
1st June - A17 and 25 (Potteries)
2nd June - A17 and 6/6A (Potteries)
3rd June - A17 and 25 (Potteries)
It was then only on the A17 until it reappeared working both A17 and 25 Potteries on 8th June
9th/10th June - A1 and 25 (Potteries)
11th June - U4/T1 and 25 (Potteries)
12th June - 11/25 (Potteries)
It was then in the Potteries solely until 25th June
25th June - U1 and 25 (Potteries)
....and so it goes on
32638 has only appeared 24th Aug, 4th Sep and 10th Sep recently. Most recently, 32639 was allegedly working the 6/6A in the Potteries all day on Saturday and on the A1 on Sunday....
Whatever is claiming to be 32639, think it's fair to say that the real one isn't in Cornwall!!

Well if it shows on a public service in the west I'll find out tomorrow

Good spot. Interestingly, 32637 hadn't tracked since Feb until Friday when it worked the 251 just after 32639 did....
Looking on flickr for shots of 32637 and....
16th July - on the T2 - vehicles tracking 32639, 32757, 32758, 33457, 33466, 33469, 37008, 37014, 37019,
30th July - on the T2 - vehicles tracking 32639, 32681, 32683, 33458, 33461, 33469
31st July - on the A17 - vehicles tracking 32548, 32619, 32621, 32639, 37011, 37164
Adds weight to @richw observations
EDIT: notes on a shot on Flickr in that 32637 is indeed masquerading as 32639!!!

We are very lucky that there is such enthusiastic senior management.
Time to update my spreadsheet.

Are 23313 and 23325 still with First Kernow as they’re on that list?

Yes, on dedicated school contracts.
When did 23313 re enter the fleet? The last I saw of it was working Glastonbury runs last year, de branded.

It never left the fleet. It was re-registered to it's original registration of YN54NYU suggesting it was due for disposal but plans must have changed and it has since been re-registered again,
On the subject of registrations in this list 25001 should read Y17TRU, YN63ZHK being its original registration. 30565 should read WU02KVF. 32096 should read KP51WCX.
Of course, it was 23315 that was in use at Glastonbury last year.

11036, 11038, 11086 and 11087 all had a new logbook issued on 2nd October which would suggest they may all have had a change of owner.
Only 11041 and 11116 which is not shown in this list, retain their 2019 logbooks.

Maybe some to take off Private regs?
I think that went to Mid Devon Coaches?

Not in this case 'CornwallBus'. The vehicles are still assigned to the private plates so whatever the reason for a new logbook being issued it wasn't that.
