Hello everyone, I am aware that there is already a refurbs thread, but due to there being 1000 NRM’s I thought it be better if there was a thread dedicated to the refurbishment of these buses, instead of clogging up the current refurbs thread. Feel free to report any refurbished buses that aren’t listed below  Abellio LondonLT19 LT20 LT21 LT23 LT24 LT25 LT26 Arriva London

RATP also have LT's.
I think this is a really good thread idea by the way.

Can I request an enhancement to show the total number completed. Most of the time I will just want to look and see '128 refurbished'
Myself only really interested in grand total, but others may wish for individual companies subtotals?

So what does the refurb entail? Any noticeable improvements or major differences compared to unrefurbished units?

And have the CA buttons been removed at all? |

I don't think any refurbs of conventional buses get the USB points, new blinds etc. |

Or are they just gonna be mechanically run into the ground now?😂 |

And have the CA buttons been removed at all? When you mean the CA buttons are they the buttons above the door? All to many times have passengers got bored of sitting in traffic and hit them to open the door and get off, making all kinds of beeping noises go off😂 |

I meant the ones next to where the "customer assistant" would normally stand, a bit further down from the left hand side of the screen by the rear door. They're sort of in an indented panel. When in crew mode, there used to be 3 buttons there: lock, alert and interlock, but they're no longer relevant as there is no CA now to alert the driver, give the proceed signal or to change the door operation mode. The newer NRMs with the sliding doors don't have these buttons or that panel at all. |
