Would that now allow the City's from the 63 to run on the 363/N63? The 363 and N63 don’t use Wells Park Road, so the changing of that junction doesn’t affect them. It seems like there was never anything stopping the two of them from using Cities, though I thought the turn from Melford Road onto Underhill Road was the problem, but seemingly, it isn’t. That turn at Melford Road is the problem - it’s why the N63 isn’t allocated BYD’s and even if Abellio continued ordering just BYD’s, the 363 would have still not received any. You could see how tight it is whenever you rode a 10.5m MHV through the section |

No the 289 will be double decked in the next three weeks. What's the plan with the MMCs? I believe the 312 will just have enough EMCs for its PVR when extended, so presumably these will be its spares. |

Seen on a Linkedin post from one of the Arriva procurement managers that 76x more Electroliners and 11x Kites have been ordered for Arriva London, almost certainly for the Thornton Heath tenders. A rare moment when I’ve actually got something 100% correct in terms of vehicles including the 255’s single deckers |

Yes the numbers do add up to cover the TH routes, I think the 243 is the only unconfirmed order now for Arriva (though I assume will be more ESs)? |

Whether only one or both will move is the question |

Wait 11 SDs, I thought 255 will have a frequency of 9 buses, I'm guessing 2 spare Seeing as it’ll be the only single deck route at TH, I suppose it makes sense for it to have two spares. Thats even less than what it has now— as 255 is currently allocated 12 buses (ENL49-60) The 255 is currently allocated 10 buses |

Just had a look within TH, T299 is no longer in the garage, T295 and T298 is not in the garage. That's probably cause its getting its blinds done or stored at Beddington, maybe along with T299.

Does anyone know when SLS14 crashed into the rear of a SL7 next to Centrale tram stop?

I like vehicles. Buses, trains, cars, all of them. I made a song out of Stagecoach too.
