Dose anyone know if ensign still has ex Arriva VLAs that was used on LO-T during the first closure? they was renumumberd 901-907 while they had them.they was fully blinded for LO-T At least some of them have been disposed of or sold. In this part of the world, now is probably a very good time to get rid of LEZ compliant buses that aren't economic to upgrade to Euro 6 as their value will probably decline then crash to scrap as October 2020 approaches.

Driver of VWH2118 took a wrong turn bus was heading into a multi story car park lol If that was on Wimbledon Queen's Road I think quite a lot of drivers, myself included have made that mistake the first time going down there! It's a case of bearing left to go straight. www.google.com/maps/@51.420654,-0.204689,3a,90.0y,24.641949h,82.397285t/data=!3m4!1e1!3m2!1sMugmyq8k6TGcCqCaviqVPg!2e0

Abellio decided to put 9001 on RAIL today, there was also a Redbridge Transport Vyking earlier as well.
