Is it confirmed that the 312 will be getting new electrics, or a top up for its extension to purley? The vehicles for the extension are already at TC Oh the ex-RATP 14 reg EMCs? I thought they transferred because H98 converted to DD and they had nowhere else to go |

If I’m not wrong the reason why the N102 doesn’t run between Brent Cross and Golders Green is because of the residents at Peninine Drive and that’s because of the noise. Have ever thought about trialing the quieter Hybrids or even electrics between Golders Green and Brent Cross at night since the residents problem is a nooks e problem. Will the residents along The Vale, Rodborough Road and Hodford Road okay with buses running past there house or is it only Pennine Drive with the problem?

If the problem is the noise then I don't know what to tell them. Buses aren't that loud anymore |

They could have tried ages ago - most of the Ts are off the route this late. The only issue would be G2 HVs rattling around but there are probably enough hybrids to run the 102N fully. I lived with loud diesels running down residential roads for a while 24/7 and nobody complained. |

Having received my new SUP 39C, I looked at SUP 39B and had already noted that ENXs on route B15 have been refurbished. Can anyone say when they were refurbished please?
Admittedly, as these date from before 2011, I have the feeling these are not as good as those on route 289.

Admittedly, as these date from before 2011, I have the feeling these are not as good as those on route 289. They were refurbished because the B15 was retained with existing buses in 2019 from the 428. As well as the 428 using T71-74, 81 which some have already been refurbished. |

I’m surprised N are being more lenient and putting LT63 HVs onto the 468

All drivers are trained Do Arriva have a fear of more new buses going to Croydon than necessary??? Their buses are in awful condition visually. The Enviro 200s look terrible, and the unappealing orange bars make it all worse. I saw a B15 in Welling and it looked like it just came out of the garage for the first time in 9 years... at least some of the Ts look cleaner with white poles. |
