Ending the 78’s decades long association with Arriva and its predecessors tonight is AE 15, worked by HA7 LK65BZD. 0050 departure from Shoreditch. The route has been worked from Ash Grove since 2010, and spent 11 years at DX prior to that.
The 157’s last bus is indeed T192 LJ60ATV, and the last bus will be the 0120 departure from Morden.

The last Arriva bus on 157 will be T192 Boooo! 😂 Sorry, I did try and emailed the manager to change the allocation, but was too late. I guess I should have called the running shift to get the shunters to change the allocation.

Despite living a 10min drive from Brimsdown, I acutally do not know this; Does the 191 & 307 stand at the same place? I may take a walk thru the reservoir later. I wouldn't have thought the reservoir is quite deep even for a paddle ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) Have any more EMNs arrived for the 377? What's happening with the hybrids for the W3 tomorrow? Nothing happening to the W3 tomorrow. The 78 HA's would be used for the SL1 now. Over next week they would be vinyled up and get charging points I am told at the seat backs. W3 would be on the back burner until other buses are released early next year.

That will need something aswell when it starts next year

Well it would be allowing the 78 to return back to one of its original LT garages since 1990, although not the original [PM] that got absorbed into the bus station and Aylesham Centre. It did also have a stint at Ash Grove in the 1990's when London & Country became under Cowie/Arriva and operations of London & Country and Kentish Bus were put into Ash Grove.

All depends on the outcome of the 34, 66, 103, 141, 150, 175, 329, 370 in terms of double deck requirements with hybrids or new buses.

That will need something aswell when it starts next year 242 HVs either directly or indirectly will most likely play a part as that moves to Stagecoach in February and the SL2 most likely starts early March.

Didn’t see that coming. I guess now the W3 will be getting HVs from the 242 and 34 as the W3 drivers are being type trained on them.

Would I be correct that HA1-13 will be the allocation for route SL1?

There are still the ex 133 and 333 HAs that need a new home after 133 and 333 go to their new operators perhaps the W3 will be there new home in January.
