Another Ex Tower Transit DN has entered service (SN11BPK) (DN33638) Can't see all of these DNs RTP are taking on being extras they must be forming the allocation for route 467, 655, 293D, 635, 696 and 697. Quite surprised that ADE40304 was painted in BL white considering all the purchases of DNs RTP are making. ADE40304 is not for the BL services. It is the spare KU bus from what I've heard.

Possibly It all depends on if V school extras resume after half term might be none, or some, but less as years 11 and 13 have finished TfL has not announced what’s happening Also RATP has some DEs restricted to V routes, so could be their last day too Including DE20022, which given its lower mileage, surely has to be off elsewhere to displace an 07/58 plate. It is currently in EB, typically working route (V)470.

It’s a bit small, the KU buses have 77 seats, DN33638 only has 65 seats (its 1.3m shorter)

Does the 697 still take a bus from the H32? Does the 696 still take a bus from H98?

Could anyone solidly confirm the ADE allocations of route 635/696/697/698, thank you in advance.

Maybe the 183 will use the SP's leased from the 698? 3 (13 reg) VHs still to enter service at V which will allow 3 VHs possibly more to go to Fulwell. That then releases SP40073-76 from FW to SO. The 698 already has SP40071/72 which presumably move across to SO as well. The E1 extension delay and a reduced PVR of 8 instead of 11 also provides the opportunity to move an SP or two out of AV which of course will have some spare now in any case depending on how routes are cross linked going forward. SPs 40077-81 the ideal candidates to depart you would have thought. All guesswork of course.
