Has an order been confirmed for the 473? I haven’t seen anything confirmed. Also not sure about the 101? I recall seeing it being confirmed as EE's on route 473. Trying to find the post now, The last post I recall regarding an order for the 473 suggested it had failed the Ee test.

Trying to find the post now, I had seen posts here suggesting Ee’s had failed a test but nothing as solid confirmation. I haven’t seen anything confirmed as ordered in the monthly LOTS publication.

Has an order been confirmed for the 473? I haven’t seen anything confirmed. Also not sure about the 101? I didn't think it had been confirmed. Only the 262 and 333. That still leaves the 22, 88, 101, 131, 172, 188, 280, 320, 321 still unconfirmed. Add in the 99, 269 and 401 as well as the 129, 233, 355, 360, 444, SL4 and the ‘R’ routes.

I haven’t seen anything confirmed as ordered in the monthly LOTS publication. There 100% was an order for the 473 confirmed, I'm looking through to find it now.

Only one set of deckers was for the 262. Nothing has been mentioned since. Perhaps it was in a LOTS publication that nobody posted here.

I’m looking at the New Buses on Order thread and there is no mention there of an order for the 473.

I’m looking at the New Buses on Order thread and there is no mention there of an order for the 473. It was mentioned somewhere because I remember reading it not the 262, the 473, as I said I am finding it as I type, also worth noting the 473 changed from TBC type to BYD ADL type on the bus orders page so I am not loosing it, initially they had it TBC of 473 and 101 and 262 ADL BYD. Defo an order confirmation in one of the channels.

I do remember a LOTs online news item confirming that route 473 is getting Ees but not heard anything since then with more details regarding batch, fleet numbers etc.

LOTS did mention about an order of Ee’s for the 473, but no fleet numbers yet and I’m amazed it wasn’t announced with the 262 order. So I’m still not 100% sure about this, I’m not saying it’s wrong and I could be totally incorrect, but I’ll wait until the buses actually show up for it

Just spotted Ee245 heading towards DS with a driver being type trained. Maybe the 262 are due to be delivered soon. Ee245 is on the 157’s batch And it's also one of the two (Ee244 being the other) with vinyls promoting the recruitment of more women to Go-Ahead, so is liable to move around between garages.

The last mention was in TLB 716 which said "We are still awaiting details for the quantity and vehicle type ordered for the 473"
