What attitude? All MCV stated was that he posted a link to that picture of SOE1 in the SOE topic. Exactly,he wasn't being rude at all. Why is it necessary responding to something from 13+ years ago? |

WVN22 is currently on the 118; is this a typo for WVN21 or WVN24? It's WVN24, but thanks for spotting my mistake and I have now corrected my post above  Thanks for the correction. |

I'm wondering if after Wimbledon Tennis, the 264 will be the next temp home for the EHVs as it doesn't seem any City's are on the horizon yet and not sure how much has been done at C for electric works.

A few pages down vjaska mentioned that they're earmarked for the 91 already, so the electrics will have to arrive before the 91 contract starts in February next year, but it does seem like the most likely scenario. |

I don’t think it’s been confirmed they are going to the 91 yet. There are enough to fit the PVR and they are expected to be refurbished soon so putting two and two together it seems logical but not yet confirmed. |

A good Go-Ahead source elsewhere has said they're earmarked for the 91 but as ever, plans can change. The 91 doesn't start until February so it's not beyond the realm of possibility to cover the 264 with the Ee's/EP's delivered and into service by that time. |

With the 264 to be likely converted first it could be sometime till the WHVs off the 119 become spare aswell. |

EHV14 is now already off to Hants & Dorset for refurbishment (this one was off road since early May and didn't make it to the last day of GAL's operation on the 135). I'm sure the others will follow soon, but probably phased? |

Just clogged up that the 170 & 476 both operated by this company are the only Diesel buses to enter Central London, just skipping the CC ULEZ!
Amazing to think that just a few years back, Diesel buses were all over Central London. Time flies for sure!

Amazing to think that just a few years back, Diesel buses were all over Central London. Time flies for sure! I know what you mean. I was well in my 20s when you still even had the Plaxton and ALXs running around there aswell. Seems strange somehow how many all diesels were still new on the 21, 43, 63, 134 etc only 10-12 years ago. |
