Interesting.. is it known if they will be allowed out on other routes at BX? Probably only on routes that get close to the pantograph at Bexleyheath and NG What about the 486??

I think there is confusion with the ones on the 358 which are going to be charged at either end of the route. I think the one at BX is just a different way to charge the bus.

No order has been placed for charging for the 358 (or indeed the buses). The pantograph at BX is in place it just awaits connection to the grid which is happening soon.

Heard the pantograph at BX can charge the EPs to 100% in 10-20 mins apparently so flexibility might be allowed.

The MetroDeckers have been pulled from route 200. Is there a known reason for this? EDIT : The TfL website says that they have been recalled due to a fire :
TfL status for Route 23

Did the 358 not get a confirmed order of Irizar IE Trams?

TfL status for Route 23There was a fire at PB that started on a OME (Metroline Metrodecker) which destroyed six buses so the entire model across London (and some provincial ones) have been taken off road as a precaution

The MetroDeckers have been pulled from route 200. A freind and i were predicting this yesterday for the route with spare buses giving some sort of service.

EH315, the bus damaged by the February storms is back in service today on rte 208. I wonder how much time E96 has left now.
