Followed by SP40089 on the H32 making the same move. Why are SPs moving to AV - don't they have enough? My guess is to replace the 56 reg and 08 reg SP’s on the H32

Why are SPs moving to AV - don't they have enough? I suspect the 08 reg examples and possibly 56 reg are in the process of being withdrawn. That would mean SPs 40006-9/27/28/33/37. SP40009 seems to have met its demise back in September 2019 as per LVF. Saw elsewhere recently that it’s been sold, can’t remember where though

What are these for? 406/418? Yup, the 406 is getting its ordered VH45310-7 after all. Not confirmed what’s going on with the 418 yet though.

I assume so, I would have thought the VHs would crosslink into the 418, unless TV decide to split the two routes up (not to say that will happen). One of the RATP bigwigs could maybe confirm that.

The 418 is getting a timetable change when it moves to TV. My gut feeling is the 418 will get buses from 306 later in year (unless it is lost on tender), so might be a period of mixed types.

Do you know if the 406/418 are getting separated upon timetable renewal or will they remain crosslinked into one another?
