Out of curiosity, is there any reason why LT813 has less opening windows than regular LTs? Was it previously involved in an accident?

This is just my assumption, but I have a feeling the 50 may partly convert to ES— there are 13 surplus ESs at BN, which would release the perfect number of HVs for the 217 Where would the chargers come from? SouthLondoner468 I take back what I said 😂, they seemed to have sorted out an efficient charging schedule and there are currently only 3 HVs on the 50

Pretty much the entire batch of ES142-160 is now parked at N. Which route is this for again?

Hope the little girl pulls through. Hard to comment on an ongoing investigation.

Further delays on route 217 as 3 HVs now at Turpike Lane and no drivers have come to take over the previous drivers, officials advising usage of the 231 and then 317 to people due to this.

4th 217 entering the bus station. The 231 are being instructed to stand at the drop off stop as there’s no room on the stand for the 231s and to avoid them getting blocked in I believe.

Teething problems... more driver problems than a second hand laptop I guess they can't ask the drivers that have just come from BN to deliver those HVs to go on the 217 for a round?

Route 217 at 10 hours notice awarded to Arriva AR with no buses, no blinds, no etms duty cards nothing!! As Sullivan have surrendered tfl contracts! I predicted this, like an episode of The Simpsons about 2 months ago

Being from the Havering area I’m not entirely clued up with North London, would SF be a viable option for the 317 should Arriva want to retain the 217 from Enfield, this way they could win back the 327 on next tender too.

If they wanted to retain the 217 from Enfield, they’d most likely move the 349 to SF or have the buses parked at EC. Also, I assume you mean 307 and not 317, as 317 is at Metroline PB?
