WS64 is currently on the 299! Not with a single blind or paper, but it is on the 299 as I’m currently on it.

Do you know if the Electrical work began at Stockwell has began and will the 320 and 321 get it's New Electric buses this year or do you think it will probably be next year. The 321 is well overdue so probably before New Year but not sure what the status is on the 320s.

The wharf river frontage is protected but MG is behind it and the council has given planning consent for the site in the past.

The wharf river frontage is protected but MG is behind it and the council has given planning consent for the site in the past. The whole of MG side is now considered, by mayoral order, to be a wharf of strategic importance and is ultimately safeguarded. Just read the document or Google it, the MG side is unlikely to go anywhere or be redeveloped into housing as it has to remain a working wharf.

According to garage staff at MB, is it true that the 320 is getting integral Alexander Dennis Enviro 400 EVs Most likely canteen rumours If true though this is good news. Anything but those awful looking BYD BD11’s!

I'm not sure to be honest, whilst the ADL bodied BYDs are more sleek, the BYDs aren't that bad. The ultimate factor for me will be build quality and ride comfort. Won't be too hard to beat ADL on the former

Given Stockwell's relatively full up to the rim I imagine any major work's likely to be carried out once space is made available next year from the loss of the 337, G1 and likely also the 118. This is baring in mind the the shed's ongoing listed structure issue, not quite knowing how far along that's progressing with English Heritage

Perhaps the 333 - would also allow the new Ees to be used as soon as they arrive.

If the 45 and 118 merger goes ahead with TUK space could be made available at SW as early as February Why not move the 333 along with the 77 or 155 to Waterloo? That should free up 35 or so buses. Those routes all terminate in the vicinity of Waterloo. Drivers can easily use the northern line to travel up and down those routes. Makes no sense operating the 153 and 214 there.

There's also difficulty at the Tooting Broadway stand which is why Arriva very rarely put EA's on the 333.

Presumably there's some reason why the 153 and 214 can't be operated from NP? Space or driver shortages? The 153 is going to Metroline next year so presumably something else will move into RA?
