DW507 marked VOR on LVF?? Anyone know the story? LVF shows it was on the 645 earlier today at 15:49, no marker for VOR  God knows why then. Think some people get a little presumptuous with a little mishap/hiccup and report the vehicle VOR to LVF. It was in service up until 15:12 the previous day, so thought marking it VOR was a tadge eager. |

EN19 disappeared from the 318 for a couple of months, it was probably at a museum getting spare parts  |

Believe DW553 is currently at Hants and Dorset Trim undergoing a refurbishment, which would be the first DW for the 466 to be refurbished Have a feeling DW547 might be the first. And you are correct my friend |

I was hoping to get an LT on the 466 extras today when I was meeting a friend in Addiscombe but ended up with HV394 from N instead. |

According to a picture posted on The Londoner FB group, ENL102, ENL103 and ENL110 have all been decommissioned. Would explain why ENX1-5 are at TC then! I'm considering a visit to Croydon on October 29th, with Woolwich postponed to next year. I hope to ride an ex-Stagecoach ENL still in service then. |

I think you should be OK with the ENLs, cant see what would be due to replace them. |

The Summer extras on route 166 start on 9th July and run until the end of August. These are extra journeys on Saturdays and Sundays between Purley and Banstead to cater for extra visitors to the Lavender Fields near Woodmansterne (the Saturday journeys duplicate through Croydon-Epsom journeys and v.v.).
From Purley (Downlands Precinct) at 11.08, 12.10 & 13.10 on Saturdays, and 11.51 and 12.51 on Sundays
From Banstead (Marks & Spencer) at 15.50, 16.48. 17.48 & 18.49 on Saturdays, and 15.30, 16.30 & 17.29 on Sundays

Interestingly TFL still count EMC1 as part of the network on their fleet audit (scroll down to the 0 emissions age and length part). I don't suppose anyone has any knowledge as to its current status? |

With the withdrawal of 78 at the end of 2022, would it be a stretch or not plausible if they were sent down to TH for partial conversion of 250 and 64 or one route, make TH more hybridised instead of withdrawing the vehicles completely?
