EH148 is now back in service at RR (Since 6/9) I spotted this on Sunday and its got a badly masked replacement blind display at the front! I am guessing this is the bus that hit a tree in Plaistow earlier this year.
Edit this is the bus as it was last used on the 5.

192 sounding a little bit rough on route 434 this morning, sounded slightly like what 8522 used to. The turbo is still whining away too

ENL109 is seriously a piece of work alright. I can run faster than that sack of shite!

No surprise that it's an ex GR they really didn't look after their stock even before the closure was announced Even when they came to GR they were not that great, being at GR for 2 years probably did not help though. The one that was the worst when at GR had to be ENL110 - could barely make it up a slight incline past 10mph.

I remember you saying that before and I still have to disagree 109 is still by far the worst. But in general these are terrible vehicles for such a hilly route like the 166

I disliked the 407's ADL's which would regularly be found on the 166 or 312 but I'd take one over any Enviro 200 anytime.

As for ENL109, I remember that being another bad one, looks like things haven't changed then

It's a shame that the DWLs are gone even on the last day they wasn't to bad I would love them to come back but I believe that they have been scraped

T274 sounded grim today - anyone else noticed? It completely outdid T30 going the opposite direction at Muswell Hill...!

ENL106 wasn’t much better when I had it on Wednesday, it was rather slow going up Rectory Lane

I thought the 407’s ADL’s were pretty good although I didn’t go on those too often.

EH12 on route 436 sounds like it's about to die.
I like it!
