There was 2 SPs on 267 yesterday, and another SP today Looks like 7 of RATP’s LT haven’t been used in November (LT 82, 83, 121, 124, 149, 671, 673) Wonder if it will send back the 211 batch as part of the transfer for 27 On the bright side, I suppose FW won’t need to keep as many spare SPs from Saturday once 267 goes What's SP? MMC? Fleet number designations for certain vehicles.

I wwas told, so take this with a pinch of salt, unless it can be confirmed, that type SP= Scania Poland My thinking behind ‘SP’ (*and this is purely my thinking with nothing substantial behind it) that it abbreviates simply to ‘Scania OmniCity’ but using the letter O would completely confuse it for the number zero. So instead the next letter after O, obviously being P, was used instead

MMC? SP is the code that RATP use for the buses usually found on the 111, 281 and H32 in our area. MMC is the description given by the manufacturer ADL for the facelifted versions of the E200 (single decker) and E400 (double decker). In our area, the E200 MMCs are the 16-reg or newer buses found on the 110, 195, 235, E5, H20, H22 and H37. The E400 MMCs are the 17-reg and 19-reg buses found on the 207/427.

Don't forget the 15-reg E400 MMCs which appear on both the 207 and 427

TfL have gone into secret mode with upcoming changes Every change already happened (except 246 today), no info on any forward changes tfl.gov.uk/modes/buses/permanent-bus-changesI wonder why they are withholding it, as I am sure changes are supposed to happen in next few weeks

TfL have now added the details of 18 cut (TfL describe it as timetable change), seems no change to AM or PM peak service (so I can’t see why PVR would change as the P is peak) And change to N277..... for one night only. (Why this is in permanent changes list is beyond me) tfl.gov.uk/modes/buses/permanent-bus-changes

(Why this is in permanent changes list is beyond me) tfl.gov.uk/modes/buses/permanent-bus-changesComparing the current and new timetables on londonbusroutes.net, there certainly is a change to the peak frequencies, especially in the pm when the route will run x5 mins instead of x4 mins. The am peak service is still x4 mins towards Euston, but mostly x5 mins towards Sudbury (with a few shorter intervals). How TfL can call this "no change" I don't know.
