Anyone wonder what could happen to the 12 metre E200 EVs on the 444 and 360? Along with the 10.9m E200 EVs on the 153? I do wonder if Go Ahead could potentially use them to retain the 300 for its next contract. There have been talks about the 108 moving to NX completely to get its E200 EVs, and I believe I read somewhere that the Citaros on the 108 and 358 will be used for Fasttrack temporarily... Lastly, does anyone know if the 147 will still be moving to SI? I can see this happening so that there could potentially be more space for the 325 and 101 chargers, whenever their electrics arrive to RR, and for future routes that could be electrified there. It seems like they are the only subsidiary in Go Ahead that have managed to have their garages electrified, although TUK would be the only operator to have every garage electrified. The 12m electrics on 360/444 and soon 108 are getting old now, and there aren't many routes they can go to, so they may be scrapped or sent to Go North East or someplace else. I think the 153 batch will be used again, maybe on the 300 as you say but would SI be electrified, or would it transfer back to RR? I also heard the 188 would transfer back to Q, so hearing the 108 will transfer to NX doesn't surprise me. I think that was initially the plan anyway. As for if the 147 will move to SI, I'm not sure. It might to make room for the 325 and 101 chargers, but I think there may be some space at RR still. Now I've got some questions: Will the 5/N15 fully move to DS or will the part allocation remain at RR? WHEN will the 101 order be confirmed?!?!? It will soon be 6 months into it's contract without a hint of its buses or what will be ordered! I don't think it can take Ees so it may be the Integral E400EV. |

Not sure what you mean regarding the 5 and N15? Are you talking about the night allocation/ cross workings? There are no plans to move the 5 to DS as far as I am aware. There will still need to be a night allocation on the N15 from RR as there are not enough buses at DS to provide the N15 and also the morning run out on the day routes. |

They haven’t even hit 10 years yet and the majority are only a year older than the 153 batch. |

I wouldn't be at all surprised if the 188 was to be moved to RA when the 153 goes. This in turn would free up space at MG to take routes from BX to make room for the 99, 269 and 401. |

RA cannot accommodate DDs. There will probably be a shuffle round as I don't think BX can take the 99/269/401 unless some routes move out. Possibly 51 to MB/MG (at a stretch), 89 to NX and 486 to MG? |

I don’t know if true or not but according to wiki route 100 is moving to RA from February which would make more sense imo

I haven't been there for years. When GM closed in the early 90's the 11 ran out of there. |

It's already been confirmed anyway that the 188 will be going to Q. This plus the 108 going to NX (and 225 loss) suggests that space at BX for the 99/269/401 will be made available by moving some BX routes to MG. My guess would be the 244, 486 and 624/625/658? |

Imo if a bus is younger than 20 years, then them being “old” shouldnt even be a disscussion… Obviously tho its London with their 16 year age limit so just has to be different right… If London was “normal” like most of the country there’d still be ALX400s running about |

Why can't RA accommodate double deckers? They can as seen with SL6 stopovers but the maintenance shed can't fit them meaning work on them would have to be done at another garage hence none are permanently based there. Could do an arrangement between Q and RA like how BX and MG have an arrangement for maintenance. |
