Interesting that RP has suffered from staffing issues much later than other garages in the area It coincided with the return of Route 18 to MF frequencies from Sunday - it is a huge increase... Would be nice to see this on the route(Not my photo) Attachment Deleted

Meanwhile on RATP Dev's London website the 266 apparently runs from Hammersmith to Fulwell and the N266 apparently runs from Golders Green to Waterloo haha I'm loving it . Absolute genius editing skills demonstrated there. I'm assuming the 266 replaces where the 267 used to be They've been hopelessly slow at updating their website in the past, I seem to recall the 10 being on the website almost a year after it was withdrawn. Almost as bad as the Wikipedia entries on London bus operators which were all very out of date until someone recently was good enough to update them all, hats off to whoever that was. I would agree, I applied for a job on the RATP website. Waited 2 weeks, phoned their HR and was told the job had closed a month before and should have been taken down. I was not happy.

I don't know what has happened to many of our ADEs but they have become really slow and feel heavy to drive amongst other issues. Even the ones that used to go like rockets are becoming slow. Really starting to not enjoy driving them at all. I miss the euro 6 B5LH (yes I know we have them but there is only 4) and very rare to get one and two of them have ISA that I know of so they are not the same to drive and they tend to jolt and judder alot whilst trying to cope with the system) Hopefully you get VH45298-VH45309 because they are really nice buses at HH. Yea but likelihood is they will have ISA and I have found out all of VH153-155 & 187 have ISA.

Their website has always been pretty pointless.
