243 could do well at SF (especially if juiced up) for the new electrics, to prevent any 307-style setbacks in August  It would seem an order hasn't even been confirmed for the 243 Will all current Electroliner orders being for the 279 and TH routes. Could be sometime before anything arrives for the 243 tbh. My prediction: they're considering the Yutong U11DD |

My prediction: they're considering the Yutong U11DD I’m hoping and praying to god your prediction doesn’t come to fruition 😂 I think it’s just a case that they’re not forecasting AR to be ready to be electrified any time soon, so no need to place an order for them yet |

I hope we see SF on the buses. Always liked this garage. One of those tucked away places like HT and BW.

No vehicles currently tracking on route 248. TfL really need to improve the quality of their data. It is almost becoming a daily occurrence routes stop tracking! |

No vehicles currently tracking on route 248. Thats because they've enabled the new schedules on the Ibus before they're actually due to go in. Same thing happened the day (or it might of been two) before the 253's were cut back to Mornington Crescent. No buses will poll on ibus even on our side. Just on the GPRS map. Whats happening on a technical level is while the running numbers maybe the same the trip numbers dont align with what its expecting so the Ibus goes back into Fallback mode. |

So SL2 will need 16 HAs, which leaves some but not enough for W3, where could they go instead?

I believe plans have changed for the W3 and it's expected to see HV's instead, of course someone will correct me if I'm wrong on that Id assume so from the 242 but not enough to fill the PVR of 21 for W3, HVs for W3 could work as it’s going to have a hybrid contract regardless. Perhaps we could see a mix with some spare HAs to fill up the rest of the W3s PVR who knows. |
