Does anyone whether it's a DW or T allocated to the duty (E126) on the 313 that covers the AM and PM trip to/from Dame Alice School.

yes it will, along with HV201-206 and maybe HV322andHV323. Is HV201-6 not on the 158 from EC? If they go to WN what will cover the shortfall? im guessing the Ts from W3 will cover it, maybe HVs from the 133 and im not sure about the DWs from enfield as DW503 transferred back into enfield. |

I've got HV92 on the 34's as running number 70. Not exactly sure why the engineer has given the driver a sub 100 series HV, I dont believe they're meant to be on the route under the current contract.

I would love to ride the 158 with Ts but hope the HVs leave and stay away from the route, just my own opinion. The route is not due for tender renewal until 2026 so got a good couple of years with DWs on it along with the 123. |

There is nothing in the contract that they cannot be used. The problem is the blinds, I believe only 3 of the mk1 HV's at [AD] have 34 on them. There is NO restrictions on hybrids. In the early days there was one or two T bus odd workings with the yellow blinds of the early ones. The trouble was a sizeable chunk of the 34 drivers were not type trained and it meant being subbed. This also happened a few times on the 102 with the SW's until they ended up having to type train all drivers on the SW |

Looks decent but that large Superloop logo on the passenger window ruined it for me, it looks like it was designed someone was too obsessed with those classic children TV shows called Rainbow and Playbus. |

Look how many Gemini 2s appear on the route. Arriva are not breaking any rules. |

Would make more sense for the DWs on the 144 to come over if anything moves at all from 158. |

Would make more sense for the DWs on the 144 to come over if anything moves at all from 158. I can certainly see some cheaper tenders over the next few months to effectively off set the fare freeze, suspension of peak fares on Fridays etc and therefore using as many of unallocated hybrids for routes like the W3 so that all 30 HVs off the 243 are still free to reuse on routes such as the 66, 103, 370. Even the HVs from BN could be drafted in on a 3 year contract. Based on the 28 award, the 2013 reg DWs used on the 307 could do a 3 year term starting in 2024. |

HA34 35 & 38 are parked inside N also starting to look like a Ghost town with the 137 gone 💀

I'll have to figure out what the other two buses are for when a 141 driver nicks my late meal relief buses from the garage  |

Are the MMC ENXs going to be a part of the SL5's allocation?
The 61/12-reg ones fit the SL5's TVR perfectly so I would predict not, so alternatively they could be used on the 166 and 312 which will most likely both need an extra spare when the Sutton/Croydon changes take place in March.
Also, I assume ENX28 (10-reg) is going to be withdrawn when the 289 is fully double decked?

I would think the two MMC’s are at TC, whether or not they will go on the SL5 or 166, we’ll find out during the week. Not the most helpful answer I know but given that ENX10 is VOR and ENX19 was written off last year following a crash, there may be a need for more spares. ENX28 replaced ENX19 at TH, but it may be required if Arriva want to get rid of the remaining ex Stagecoach ENL’s. |

It could be very plausible. I don't think ENX31 and 32 have ran on the 289 for a week or two
