I don't know if my ears were playing tricks on me, but sometime last week I was cycling around Brixton and ended up behind an e400 doing the 345 with what sounded like an Allison Gearbox inside 👀

On a different note, did you enjoy the sights of Brixton?

2444 has returned to service after suffering fire damage in 2019, but it has transferred to QB and is currently on route 344

Yes sir 💯 might have been working though 🤔

They've retained the 156 with hybrid vehicles, some of which will probably be these.

I imagine the 59 reg batch from the 414 may go first as they are leased

Afternoon folks. As the E9 has transferred to Metroline does anyone know what will happen to it's 09-reg buses? Most likely those ones are planned to be withdrawn especially with the same 09reg batch allocated to the 345 are soon going to be replaced with the 2014 E400 hybrids from the 49, C3 & E1.
EDIT: They could stay for a bit longer to replace the remaining 56/07 reg batch until more hybrids are available.

I wonder if the remainder of the 56 & 07 reg might go first?

Once school extras end date gets clarity might be some spare buses Probably withdraw something else when school holidays start as route 49 buses will be spare by time school restarts in September, although they will move in September to 156 (freeing up 156 fleet) The plan is hybrids from E1 (and 49 early September) move to 345 and 156 Buses from E9 and 414 will leave Single decks from 290 and 484 will leave

Yes, majority of them are still at WL but a couple are doing extras elsewhere
