Display aside, I think it's great to honour Chloe Kelly in this way, given her very personal connection with the route. Would have been nice for an actual bus to have been named after her.

Or better yet a cherished number plate assigned to such vehicle. Something like K3 LLY. Didn’t CT Plus do this for one of the 394’s old Caetano Nimbus buses which was then reassigned to a new Enviro 200 MMC at the time?

Sullivan’s have a number of buses that have personalised number plates with initials of a few of their staff

The 83 will move to the new Alperton base on 17th September. The 90 will transfer in to take its place at PV.

It would have been better. They could have named one of the soon to be ex 295 VWHs that would later be a part of the 92s allocation after her.

I see that the new Athlon garage will be an outstation. So that’s what there going to do and it makes sense especially since you have two garages close to each you might as well make one an outstation.

“[Additional vehicles used for operational purposes to be removed]” just to confirm what does this mean?
So will the VWs move to Athlon Road until the new electric BYD’s are introduced in 2023?

The 83 uses a 20th bus to cover for them running to PV garage for layovers. That will eventually revert to the standard PVR of 19 as awarded on tender once Athlon Road opens I gather. Strongly suspect the VWs will move over though in the interim. There is no confirmed order of BDE vehicles yet either.

Can't remember who it is in honour of though It's the postcode for the main depot and offices at HK (E8), plus the initials of a staff member who died of cancer (NJB).
