I heard it from The Londoner FB group and there were photos of the bus with DT codes. Link to the post (you'll need to be in the group to view it) Hmm. That code may well be an error - it has been known for Arriva refurbs to come back with wrong garage codes. 3 pages back, it was also mentioned that EMC9 had DT codes on it aswell. And since coming back from refurbishment, it’s not transferred…so another garage coded error.

For those who hasn't seen the news on FB, EMC1 is being revived, and will no longer be a parts donor. I'm not sure if anyone noticed, but on this year's fleet audit EMC1 was still counted. EMC7 has also transferred to DT to work route B15 apparently. Are the EMCs not needed on the 312? not that they ever really manage a full allocation. Honestly. TC can never keep a full EMC allocation on the 312 despite there being enough EMCs, unless some are VOR or something

TC can never keep a full EMC allocation on the 312 despite there being enough EMCs, unless some are VOR or something Must admit a little dubious here. If that is the case, can think of 3 possibilities. 1) The 312 extension is not happening. 2) The new buses part of the tender award have been ordered and are imminent 3) Something elsewhere operates the route. All seem unlikely to me, so maybe a watch this space moment.

For once, it doesn’t affect South London

My London Report didn't check the fact of which routes was affected by every bus garages. Some routes are no longer operator by Arriva. Some routes miss out. Also, Don't Dartford DT and Grays GY also affect as part of Arriva London North?

Noticed they put the 318 as being run both by Enfield and Tottenham MyLondon has never been quite accurate, but if the strikes go ahead, perfect disruption for kids going back to school. Looks like some will have to walk part way to school I thought London North had a different / better pay structure than South? Unless it's just a strike to help unseat the Tories as everyone is striking at some point or other. It's going to put more off buses and back in their cars or an Uber

I seem to also remember DT at least agreed a pay deal earlier in the year.

The EMC are being refurbished for the 312 contract, wrong garage codes have been placed on them. They couldn't operate out of DT as it currently doesn't have any charging points!

I think the blue Arriva moquette suits the ex-Stagecoach HVs very well, esp against the orange handles.
