A question for you guys: Which bus type do you want to see in your area? (can be old withdrawn types as well) I really want to see the Caetano e.city gold in my area and the Caetano Nimbus vehicles DLA's, VLA's, Dennis Tridents Enviro 400H's, was nice to see them and ride them on the 179 when 179 was run from T. Wright Gemini 2 (Volvo B5LH) - I find them quite enjoyable to ride Mercedes Citaro - these buses are just awesome and I wish they could be brought to Ilford

Another question: Which type would you remove from your area? LT's straight away with any other decker replacing them The P4's Enviro 200's - they're absolutely knackered to bits and are generally awful Anything else can carry on as they are - the P5 loses it's SE's soon anyway and I don't mind the ZF Enviro 200's in my area

Another question: Which type would you remove from your area? LT's. Although I am warming up to them, I'd rather them be gone from Ilford

I don't really use the 39 but I was referring to the 424, which probably will have those buses for at least 5 more years

Another question: Which type would you remove from your area? LTs, now their open boarding is gone there's honestly no point of them plaguing all three ELT routes. WHs seeing as they're just terrible buses.

Another question: Which type would you remove from your area? LTs, I feel like they are so slow in my area and in the Summer I cannot handle them. The routes are also very busy and i think the way the seats are in position, there is less standing space. LTs being on routes 24, 27, 59, 68, 73, 91,168, 253, 390 and formerly 88.

I must admit it is weird seeing Enviro 400 MMCs often in my area now. The last I saw was the EH on the X26.

I suppose they could do Clapham Common - Camden Town shorts for example.
