Transdev Airport Services are taking delivery of twenty-six 25-seater Volvo B8RLE/MCV eVoRa for inter-terminal shuttles at Heathrow Airport. These will operate within the confines of the airport ("airside") for passengers who are connecting at Heathrow with another flight and do not need to undergo UK Immigration and Customs (unless transferring to a UK domestic flight or one to Ireland). The vehicles, which will operate from a base in West Drayton, are unusual as they are three-door - including one on the offside - and they also have an orange flashing beacon on the roof for operating within the airport confines. They replace 63-registration Enviro200s currently used on these duties.

Vectare Essex has a few 22-registration ADL Enviro200 MMCs on Chelmsford Park & Ride services (Sandon Park and Chelmer Valley). They appear to temporary loans from dealer stock as they are in allover white with vinyls proclaiming "I'm helping out on Chelmsford Park & Ride whilst we put the finishing touches to your brand new buses". Photos (not mine): YX22 OGK - flic.kr/p/2n7oUcKYX22 OGN - flic.kr/p/2n7iTAfYX22 OGO - flic.kr/p/2n7oUfAYX22 OGP - flic.kr/p/2n7s7XHYX22 OGN has moved on to City of Oxford and carries fleetnumber 599. This is a temporary loan from Dawson Rentals until the second vehicle for new route 46 to be numbered 516 has been delivered (it is currently in build). The first vehicle for the 46 is numbered 515 and is registered YX22 OJZ. It is currently white but will receive branding in due course. Route 46 links Oxford with the village of Great Milton and is supported by Le Manoir Aux Quat'Saisons to enable its staff to get to and from work. Although I dare say the odd diner may find their way on board!

The Metroline BDEs for route 204 at (EW) Edgware have started to be delivered, the first three at least now have 22 registrations.
BDE 2752 - LG22 AXF BDE 2753 - LG22 AXH BDE 2754 - LG22 AXJ
It is thought that the entire batch has 22 registrations allocated provisionally, but any not registered by the end of August may gain 72 registrations instead.

What will 2751 be? There isn't a 2751 in this batch. I have a feeling that is the number for the Volvo electric.
