Tommy Cooling has said on a Facebook group that the BHs (former Tower Transit) are due to be used on the V226 extras from PV. Does that mean the existing 08 reg Metroline Travel DEs will be getting withdrawn?

The 10th of 20 hydrogen buses has now entered service on 7 Normally (so far) only about 2 in use at any time
But I guess it does mean have some spare buses which is handy with E9 takeover on Saturdays

TE1446 has transferred to G, TE1445 hasn't been used since 21 May. Remains to be seen what else makes up the allocation but seems a strong possibility that TE1446/7 are part of the E9 allocation.

TE1443 - TE1448 are now at Greenford, that's 7 vehicles. TE1313 and TE1573 are already at Greenford so I'd expect a vehicle or two to transfer in soon!
