DWL74/75/86/90 & ENL28 Have Departed Today for Scrap ENL28 😥 All the money spent rebuilding just to never see a days service. Anyone know what stopped this re-entering service ... would be quite a young bus for its age ... my guess would be electrical issues that could not be resolved.

DWL74/75/86/90 & ENL28 Have Departed Today for Scrap Shame to see the ex GR DWLs go for scrap - many memories on all members of that batch. This is also useful information for my ex London Buses list I have in the London Bus Files section of the forum, would you happen to know of any other buses departing for scrap from Arriva in recent months?

Arriva Londoon threatening disciplinary action for drivers if thry unofficialy block off front doors or seats! I think after this makes its rounds on social media two things will happen. They'll reconsider or whoever posted this on social media will end up in a lot of trouble.

There's a notice in TC garage saying the 166 is to get new electric buses in June with extra batteries on the roof to last longer.

Either that or you’ve mixed this up with the 312 which is supposed to receive new electrics Wasn't the 312 only supposed to be getting a small number of new electric buses? Think it might have been to replace the 2 prototype examples unless I'm mistaken
