I think I remember busdryver mentioning that they would move to the 183. Lots of fleet moves tonight, and from what I understand, some Scanias going back on to the 183. Hounslow expecting a few VHs as well to finish the 423 allocations and a few DEs being withdrawn as well for training conversion. Expect a lot more during the spring as the fleet is prepared for the incoming routes in May, September and October... Anything in particular to look out for or just the expected Richmond changes?

So are VH45255-VH45257 not moving to AV? I believe they are due over the weekend.. Would you happen to know what specific buses are moving to AV for the 110?

It's going to be weird seeing the 110 in Hammersmith from tomorrow and the 391 gone (in number form only). I still miss those days of the 391 in Fulham.

I wonder what the plan is for DLE24/25. Aren’t they still officially spares for 391? I wonder if they will eventually end up back at FW to see off a few of the older DE’s?

Lots of buses spilled out onto the road outside AV tonight. Really nice to see Hounslow buzzing again. All they need is a big win like the 237 or 222 to really see this situation every night.

DLE30025 is at SO and was last seen on the H11 on the 7th. As for DLE30024, it might stay as part of the 272 at V as the 110 may take 8 MMC's from V which leaves 8 left and the 272 has 9 buses including the spare IIRC.

The 222 & 120 expire in 2022 if they don't get an extension.

DLE30009 replaced 30025 as spare at V, and was in use on 391 on Friday evening 30009 is now on H22

The garage moves are also setting up the single deck fleets for next years contract changes and renewals
I believe all the 09-reg DEs are to be allocated (on paper) to one of 371, 398, H9, H10. All of which are scheduled for electric buses during 2021
Currently there are some older DEs on school extras (not euroVI upgraded)
But I think only DE20018, 20, 21 (part of 72 allocation) and DE20050-56 are scheduled to remain in service out of the 2007-2009 batches after next years contract renewals.
I think some more training buses are scheduled to be converted from spare DEs From March the trainers also need to be euroVI

Is the 110 not going to be converted over to DD?
