With some 11reg WVL’s at Ensign - Sullivans could pick those up and use them for the 603. I think the 603 will use a few of the ex-Tower Transit 12reg Enviro 400s Like I mentioned before, these are no longer available, DN33776/33777 went to Eire and I have no idea the whereabouts of DN33782 which did not go to Ensigns.

Some are already at Sullivans, the 603 could use 2-3 vehicles out of E45-51

Had a feeling it might be the ex Abellio E400s that would be acquired. EDIT: Sullivans website actually confirms, however weirdly states them to be "Enviro 400 Hybrids" but confirms its ex Abellio 9550-9552

Do Sullivan have any additional E40Ds from Tower Transit for non-TFL routes? Saw one on the 306 recently with no iBus etc.

Also 626 needs 4 buses

Also 626 needs 4 buses E46 & E47 are not mentioned above, so could be added to the 626. (Perhaps the '&' was a typo for '-' ?) The 217 has the MMC Es, and E49-51 will form the 603 allocation. This now uses up all of Sullivan's newer DDs. The newer B7TLs (e.g. ex-RATP ELVs) can then be transferred to non-London routes and withdrawn some older stock.
