When is the 104/304 up for tender? 304 already been handed back and tender results are due soon. The new tender starts June 2025. The 104 should have been December 2025 but it seems it might have started a new tender when rerouted in 2022 but has never been confirmed 100%. The 300 is another route that the tender dates are unclear.

Not sure if it’s a first but the 5 has so far managed a 100% LT allocation today!
Even on a Sunday you usually get at least one EH out.

While a handful of routes have changed operator since March, I was quite shocked to see in SUP-39D how far ahead of its rivals GA is.
GA had a total pvr of 1935, the one in 2nd place being Stagecoach with 1279. I therefore hope that GA lose more than they gain for a while.

Also simply sharing my opinion, sorry if it came across as harsh lol Reading your posts I don't think you've any need to say sorry. Don't cede any ground! I agree the WVNs/WVLs are still good runners despite their more tatty appearance in their swansong days on TfL routes. Excellent ride quality on them I always find. You can't resist having a pop can you? You must lay in waiting to take a cheap pot at me.
The phrase living in your head rent free come to mind.

According to garage staff at MB, is it true that the 320 is getting integral Alexander Dennis Enviro 400 EVs Its possibly if any concerns about length. Has the ones from the 353 strayed yet on the route? 10.8 omnicitys did work the route so I wouldn't have thought there were any issues but after the 151 situation Go Ahead my be being extra careful.

It's also possible that they will order lots of E100EVs for MB and want the 320 to share as many parts with the R routes/233 as possible.

Looking at the history of one example, I think they’ve only been used on the 654 other than the 353, don’t know if that’s representative of the others. BYD’s can get around the Catford Bridge terminus as the 160 does so with its own BYD’s and the rest of the route is pretty much a straight road until Biggin Hill. 12m Omnicitys have worked the 320 before all the way to Biggin Hill Valley
