End of September last year for what is meant to be a cover for the electrics on the 180. Oh ok. It still had WH codes on it too. Is it a loan? All of 11035-38 carry WH codes. Can’t imagine it will be long now until some or all of these head back across the river.

Will the 330 be extended to Pontoon Dock from 15th January 2022? No that was a date on londonbusroutrs.net from sometime back! No date has been set for the 241, 330 or 474.

Anyone know the refurbishment plan for 12342-59 at PD? Many of the earlier examples have been done, along with 12360-63. Just curious...

15024-29 are being converted to open top and if that is being used in London then it should be for the City Sightseeing London to replace the loaned B5TL Geminis from Cambridge and allow a possible enhancements to the tour service for this year.
Seems a bit odd to have missed off 14163/7/8/72.

Not a rare bus but a rare working, a WH bus is working a NS duty. Normally on weekdays after 5pm only 1 WH bus is out on 86 except this evening there’s 2. The extra bus being 15108.

How comes when Stagecoach London took over the 160 and 173 borrowed buses from RATP and Tower Transit respectively and not borrow buses from Arriva London the two routes previous operators?

Could be RATP and Tower offered better per diem rates than Arriva did or Arriva already had places for their vehicles to go so they weren’t available.

Indeed as Arriva T's stayed in service at DT for many weeks after covering others which were missing for various reasons so presume they simply wern't available.

12283 has turned up at Ensignbus as a shell, every single panel stripped, all glass removed, even light fittings, seats ripped out, entire cab and front upper and lower bulkhead removed to bare frame rail, everything of any value has been removed, safe to say it’s the getting the ventilation it may have needed a while back. Can only assume the other one will turn up at some point but tbh since there really isn’t much left of them, not sure what we are going to do with them.
I could also be wrong here as I didn’t get a chance to take any pictures while it was there but I’m 95% sure I was this parked up at EMR Edmonton for some time

Bow MMC Blind change! The list is huge because of the turns and N variants on the 277 and 25!
