New Buses On Order

[ilovelondonbuses]

Hi guys, LC67ADU and I have collaborated to make a comprehensive list of new buses on order. We will update this thread regularly in this format when orders are announced. Let us know what you think. I want to thank LC67ADU it was great working with you .

To share the workload my post will only cover the Abellio, Arriva, Go-Ahead, Sullivans and Uno orders while LC67ADU's post below this one will cover the rest of the operator's orders (Metroline, RATP and Stagecoach London).

Great list!

The 25 and 425 are both getting Smart Hybrids, not E40Hs. I don't think we'll see E40Hs from Stagecoach or Abellio now.

Good to see people working together and creating a reliable list for everyone to read.

Knowing Abellio, it is so unpredictable on what they will order. Everyone thought the C10 would get BYD Enviro 200s but no it got Caetano e.city Golds!

I wouldn’t say ‘so’ unpredictable. The C10/P5 we all thought would be E200s and that was a surprise, but that was it. Everything else has been entirely expected. Other than that they have an entirely ADL fleet.

The only other thing that was a bit of an unknown was the quantity of new buses the 207 would get. Initially the rumour went like 15, then 5, then 15, then 5, and eventually only 5 were ordered. But saying that, it was known from pretty much day dot that the 207 would be getting Abellio’s first lot of ‘smart’ hybrids.

The Metrodeckers are 10.5m long

Also, the fleet codes for the Stagecoach's BYD/E400 EV Citys for routes 173, 174 & 673 are planned to be numbered in the 14xxx series.
