Yes WSs are going on P4, I think LVF admin confirm it on here before or something, they'll probably be scattered all over the shop but I think quite a few could get rid of the OMs if they're desperate to The 14 reg would see out the contract on the S1 nicely being the same age as the OMs. They are longer however, 10.8m might not fit around the S1

This now leaves four of E100-E128 left at AL from the original 57 contract: E120-124, though unsurprising given the 57 and 157 are now receiving their full compliment of electrics. What do PM need these E400's for though? Probably refurb floats or something to cover for PM’s EHs and MHVs for refurbishments? And they’ve been using them on the 37 quite a lot lately since they’ve got transferred to PM Good point actually as EH61-73 and some MHV's are undergoing refurbishments for route 78.

SEe329 finally made its debut on the 439, sneaking out for a rounder last night.

Do you know if WVL413 was badly damaged in the accident is it repairable and also EH244.

I wonder if it will get repaired as the front looks badly damaged depending on whether it will cost a lot to repair.

I wonder if it will get repaired as the front looks badly damaged depending on whether it will cost a lot to repair. The condition of the chassis may likely be the deciding factor, reminiscent of Abellio Trident 9758 which had a small dent on the front after an accident but was written off as the chassis was dented. Like WVL413 it was one of the better buses as well as being within its twilight era of London service. If this B9TL's repairable (and if repair went ahead) it may likely be for the benefit of whoever owns it next, given that Go Ahead have plenty other buses to chose from with their ongoing fleet upgrades

They have re-aligned the chassis of London buses in the past. They are now in Dartford.

If this B9TL's repairable (and if repair went ahead) it may likely be for the benefit of whoever owns it next, given that Go Ahead have plenty other buses to chose from with their ongoing fleet upgrades I don’t think the chassis would be the issue necessarily but it could simply come down to the cost of a repair outweighing the cost of the vehicle - had it been a much younger bus, it probably would be repaired.

E121 has transferred to PM and running on 37. it’s looking like the rest of the 57’s former allocations are gonna be transferred to PM? The electric buses for 57 & 157 at AL have slowly arrived and entered service. Do you know if the 89 will use the 601’s MHVs next month and any updates on SW? Adding on to WVL413’s crash, would it make sense if a WVL from a different garage transfer to MG if WVL413 gets written off and out of service for the 178?

The 57 at one point last year had E, WVL, WVN, both types of WHV, WSD, Me and MHV (Q night service cover) within 24 hours which was an impressively wide variety…
…now today it’s had a brief period of one single type (Ee)!!! Much more boring and presumably slow with ISA, but the air cooling and fresh new vehicles must be much appreciated.
