On another note, does anyone know where the seven TT-native VMH's are heading of to? Are they actually heading anywhere? Looks like the VH's left. Thought the same but there was lots of discussion here and elsewhere regarding those seven VMH's moving. The numbers are also suspiciously close as it was speculated that 7 VMH's will move at and 6 VH's moved out. It is more logical to transfer VH's in my opinion as the VMH's are quite very foreign types outside of X.

If RATP are willing to type train on the VMH’s, then it may be a good idea to send them down to TV so that the 71 can eventually gain it’s VH allocation.

And anyway, the cab area is near identical to the VHs so wouldn't require much in the way of type training anyway. But certainly makes best sense to consolidate MCV buses at Westbourne

But certainly makes best sense to consolidate MCV buses at Westbourne The VH’s at TV could easily move other to FW, FW are obviously familiar with VH’s as every route there has been trained with the buses (even 371). If they stay at Westbourne Park then would they be able to convert the 452 to a full hybrid allocation?

TV are equally familiar with VH’s having operated the 85, 406 & school routes with them for a number of years.

Is it just me or are some people struggling with the use of the English language. What the hell is "My bad", perhaps I'm just getting old but the phrase is just nonsense... My bad just means my mistake. I wouldn't say its an uncommon phrase, I've heard people much older than myself say it! If it means my mistake why don't you write my mistake, p*ss poor English.

Seriously what is this forum becoming you're getting worked up by someone saying my bad. Most people will use informal speech when talking online.

This forum is generally filled with poor literacy. It grates with me, but I'm happy to overlook it if something interesting or informative is there. For me, any apology is welcome considering how rude some posters on this forum are.

Something interesting I noticed after looking through Bus Lists on the Web is that the new BCEs were built in 7 different batches. The order is: -M406/01-2= BCE47052-3 -M407/01-16= BCE47084-99 -M408/01-22= BCE47030-51 -M409/01-30= BCE47054-83 -M410/01-11= BCE47100-10 -M411/01-27= BCE47111-37 -M423/01-17= BCE47138-56 Whether this reflects the build order, I do not know, but it's interesting to see the order they're numbered. Looks like batches are in following order : 371, 49, 281, 65, X140, 183, 125

I suppose it depends on what people accept as acceptable literacy & vocabulary. I was perfectly satisfied with “my bad” as an apology having used it amongst friends myself and knowing many who use the phrase a lot which is why I said no more on the matter but everyone is different I guess 😉

So first bus on 125s I had VH45132, what a pile of misery. Was extremely bouncy and the wheelchair ramp alarm kept going off so had to bring bus back to garage so so far my experience has just been Colindale to Finchley Central.
