Some are also in the commercial fleet so are not used on TfL services and do not have to meet the allover red specification. I've seen some of the commercial fleet go on TFL services before, wouldn't that be a contract violation? It depends if you're talking about the 'V' services we had a while ago or not. Those would have been allowed, as they were used for extra capacity, but I doubt it would be allowed on regular services.

Which garage operates the N11? I've seen a few SW vehicles on it, but mainly Q WHVs lately.... Do Q run all GAL night/24 hr routes? Or do they just provide top up/cover where necessary?

If I recall wasn’t this one delivered in all red for the 276/376/D6/D8, I can’t remember which, then refurbished to the pre-2010 livery with it planned to go into the commercial fleet but then reactivated for TfL work.

Fair play GAL getting 264 and retaining 119. More electrics for them.

OM1 iirc is DE20022 off the 371. Many moons ago. Been the school bus at HH/WK for the past few years. DE20022 makes a return to action at Fulwell after quite a few years away at HH for the 216/698 school allocation and a short stint at GO Ahead covering for an OM. Currently on the 33

What's the stand time for the 184? Because I'm seeing 2 buses running alongside each other, 1 bus coming like 2 minutes after the other one. I don't remember seeing this with Arriva (not having a dig at GAL here just want to make that clear)

I don't remember seeing this with Arriva (not having a dig at GAL here just want to make that clear) Depends on the time of day, but a quick look at the WTT suggests anything between 5-15 minutes at both ends
