Says who?! The Maximum Approved Dimension in the tender spec is 8.8m! There have been instances that a R68 or R70 bus has been used. Yes I know, but that doesn't change what the spec says. Strays have happened, but it is not "cleared" as stated above

DELs use to regular appearances on the 395 until 2021 now they don’t make any appearances at all is there now restriction that prevents them from going onto the route?

Assuming you mean the 60reg DLE batch, then its beacuse none of them are at SO anymore with all 25 of them in that batch are currently at FW or AV.

I know that but even the 68 reg DLEs from H18/19 made appearances but they don’t make appearances anymore.

BCE 47127 entered service on 183 today
With a couple of BCEs at Parr Road, is this a sign of getting electric buses ready for 125 ? ie being brought from storage at X and needing whatever space can be found.

I'm dreading the electrics going to the 125 although at least we'll still have those VHRs on the route as well, just like they do with the X140.

This morning I saw what looked to be the charred rear end of ADH31 inside AV. I don’t suppose anyone can confirm if it is there, and what’s due to happen to it. Component recovery perhaps? Let’s hope it is that one and not another victim…

Looks like some of the BEs intended for the 235 at Hounslow Heath have moved into Shepherds Bush.
Could we bring seeing the end of the DEs on the 72?

The 72 is one of the routes proposed for withdrawal. But LVF seems to be showing a number of 60reg DEs out of service DE 20114-118 and 20123-124 many of those between these range are on K3 (a DLE route)

Probably RATP intends to withdrawn the remaining ex 285/324 DEs that are on the 72. Then once 235 is getting its BEs > Sovereign is getting the DLEs back and sending the DEs (covering for DLEs) to 72.

So will the 295 be operated with spare G2s and also Spare G3s from other garages until the electrics arrive or are other buses being used.
