My guess is the E400 that was logged in yesterday on the 370/ done a few stops was not supposed to go out as it’s yet to make another appearance. There was a photo online of the bus in Romford so must have done at least one trip. The bus was at the 370 terminal and fully blinded. I guess tracking isn’t right then because it didn’t appear on LVF until 5:17, do you know where I can find the photo? Tracking this bus down has been difficult

DW234 is set to come on the 375 as I saw it arriving at Romford Station, replacing ENL112! These ENL’s at GY are getting so unreliable now! Not just the ENLs, 7 DWs are off road for more then 2 weeks which are: DW212 DW215 DW224 DW229 DW233 DW240 With DW243 not seen for a week. With the 248 using one DW and the 375 using a DW, there are 1 spares not in use today DW227. The 370 notably has 9/11 buses on route as well, so that T hopefully will appear today. If GY don't keep the 347 and if it does get withdrawn, it would be a better choice to covert the 375 to DD operation too, given it will have a common fleet with the other routes.

Typical it’s back out on the 370 and I’m in Bromley, hopefully I can catch it when I’m back.

Worth the chase though, it’s very nippy this example and the driver is wizzing through Upminster.

Its the section between Corbets Tey and over the railway bridge towards Ockendon I liked on the 370 with DLAs. The Ts are good with fast drivers

ES119 has been noted (and photographed) at Arriva Merseyside's Birkenhead depot today, reason unknown, however most, if not all Wrightbus vehicles are delivered through the ferry terminal at Birkenhead.....

The Ts are good with fast drivers T220 was absolutely whizzing through those areas, to be honest throughout us the whole route, this T outdoes the DWs massively, I had used a DW yesterday in attempt to catch T220 and it was very sluggish and struggled with the hill parts of the route massively. The T had no issues with the hills. I think it also is unrestricted.
