Many Thanks for confirming Presumably then its VWHs to 2498 (for 6, 98, 31, 30, 274 or whatever routes after the multiple reallocations) and the 23 BYD-ADL electric buses for 46 will be numbered from 2505. Or is there now less VWHs and the electrics are 2476-2498 The 6 & 98's VWH's are within the current delivery of VWH's up to VWH2432 - strangely, the 30, 31/N31 & 274 would require VWH2433-2499 but 2499 is a Solo so maybe one less VWH might not be ordered? The EEL's (proposed class code I believe for the 46's electric buses) would probably be 2505-2527 presuming the VWH's are indeed between VWH2433-2498.

So if someone hits the back of the bus, it would have hit the BEL end 😊 (OK getting my coat)

I wonder if they will be numbered in the remaining gap for special types (1476-1506?) or will take next numbers in main series 24xx OS 2499-2504 What garage are the 31, H2/H3 and 268 going to?

What garage are the 31, H2/H3 and 268 going to? I'd imagine but not 100% sure that the 268, H2 & H3/631 will go to W though not sure about room whilst the 31 could go to WJ where there is plenty of room for it after the loss of the 18.

Why is that the case, have Network Rail demanded that much land back off WJ?

PA/PV are quite far from route 31. Can't Metroline move a combination of routes 226/228/187 there instead to make room at WJ? Or the 31 could go to W with the 266, 112, 232 or 324 moving to make space.

It's only 10mins on the Central Line Perivale - White City, with 15mins total walking time. And dead mileage is not too bad, just slightly further than Willesden Junction but the A40 is nice and quick.

What ever happened to DLD207 following its withdrawal? Is it still at KC or moved to PV for storage?
