Why is DW202 saying it is VOR on LVF? Does anyone know what happened to it? It's off the road atm, It's awaiting checks by Arriva Head office so may not be returning

Does anyone have any idea why some of DW501-515 are moving to AR? I thought once the 307 went electric these buses were bound for DT? Some of the AR DWs do struggle, DW472 is in a bit of a state, seems sluggish, blowing exhaust, air leak coming from front doors for example. Might move 335 and 336 on, along with any under-performing 4 series DWs (or remove non-smartblind examples 417-421) elsewhere such as GY. The ES's seem slow to enter service, and the Metrocities are yet to turn a wheel on the 377. Wondering if any more EN's / ENNs from the 3777 will remove thr last of the 2008 Darts still on the 318? I think DT have repaired or are repairing DW426 and the other bus that caught fire, one of the 5 series is at DT already. DW504 Is the permanent replacement for 451, 426 and 434 are being repaired

According to a post on the LVF Facebook Group, T131 and T145 have been listed for sale by Arriva, therefore they are both withdrawn. T131 is the first from the 250’s batch of Enviro400’s to be withdrawn, but any idea why both have departed? Both been taken away by MC Tractors. T145 had its Engine Gbox removee

Maybe the DWs worked off another route to save money. May have been an issue with one of the ENLs, was 121 used on the 347 at any point in the day? If so, would have been easy enough to nick a DW from the 66 to cover the 375 and back plate the 66s. I did notice the other day the LTs have blinds for the 375, would be to see one of those end up on the route at some point ENL111 sticks to the 347 as more reliable with speed, While 112 sticks to the 375 and it had issues yesterday morning so DW231 was sent out to replace it.

I just realised that the buses in Grays Garage still hasn’t got fuel stickers yet! All the DW’s there haven’t got the stickers and same with the LT’s! Does anyone know what’s happening with GY as they are one of the only garages without fuel stickers in my area! They must of heard your complaint, They all got them this morning
