Official confirmation of 34 ESs(Wright Electroliners) for route 279 (PVR: 30) Delivery will be in early 2024. Read here. Don't read too much into the "total number of vehicles on order with the bus operator to over 100" as it includes regional subsidiaries Is the N279 expected to use these too, or will it continue at EC with LTs off the 259?

According to most places the PVR of the 158 is 25 but it seems to just have 24 operating. Is this a change since it went 24 hours?

Hmm not sure, think it’s just a typo in the article. I’d be surprised if it moved but of course happy to be proved wrong

Perhaps they got wires crossed (pun intended ) as new buses are often stored at Edmonton

The full service on route 34 would be transferred to [AD] garage from Saturday 9th December (No more buses on the route parked at [EC]). It would drop down to a 10 minute service (currently 8 minutes) and pvr would also drop to 18 buses, currently 22 The route would also have buses running light to Courtney Mews from Walthamstow Central to make way for the SL route (stand space) Is it confirmed what the SL1's PVR and allocation will be? 11 buses Mon-Sat, 9 Sun

Any hints as to what will be the allocation for the SL1 when it starts next month? Part of the allocation will presumably come from the 34's cut, which should release 4-5 HVs. Looking at the numbers, the LK66s at AD would exactly fit the 34's new PVR, so the LC67s could be for the SL1? Then the single LF67 for the 675, and the 14reg mostly for the 102 (with a few for the 141)? So it would make sense to transfer in some more HVs - perhaps some DWs from the 307 could go to the 41 or 158 to release some? Alternatively the ex-340 SWs could even work as a temporary allocation, since the SL1 will be retendered soon.

Where is the 123 standing at Gants Hill? I didn't realise the 123 was cut back. I wondered why every 123 iv seen the past 2 days have been going to Gants Hill.

That is due to stand works taking place at the Hainault Street stand until next week, with so many routes terminating at Hainault Street and there isn't much room to displace those routes, some of those routes mainly the 25, 147, 179 & 364 are standing outside the Central Library stop and the 425 is being turned around at Ilford Hill using the 296/396 stand on Roden Street. If only those works decided to take place after the introduction of the SL2, then it will certainly reduce the impact of the 123 not going into Ilford for those using the routes into the Waltamstow area.
