MCL30306 has returned with the new RATP Group logo on the front. I’m guessing it was off road due to damage to the front panel or something. Hopefully not the one that looks way too big on the front….? I only caught a glimpse as it went past but from what I can recall, it wasn’t the worst execution of the logo that I’ve seen! I would go as far as saying it was an improvement, but only because the London United / RATP duel logo is a bit squished on the Mercs.

RML880 is expected to run on the 281 for Children In Need. This will be on FRIDAY 11th November, not the Saturday when an ensign RM(L) appears on 25 and RML903 on 43

VH45104 out on the 452 today, finally a 13reg VH does the route! With 4 BCEs now having moved into Westbourne Park for the 295 aren’t they now overstocked with vehicles for the route which in theory should release some VHs back to Fulwell for the 71. It will be interesting to see if those BCEs stay once its own allocation are delivered or whether they move to Fulwell as widely predicted.

The BCEs on the 295 do appear to follow on in terms of fleet number from the FW batch.

Was the 71 ever meant to get electrics? The BCEs freed from the 94 cut are currently operating on route 295 until its own electrics arrive.

Are the BCEs from Shepherds Bush just operating on the 295 because I believe that X does not have the BYD Chargers

BCE47153 has now moved to 125 BCE47152 not currently in service, might also be moving BCE 47154-6 still working Fulwell routes
Majority of route 125 allocation is now there Also missing BCE47143, 47146 (both still on 183, X140)
The 183, X140 is missing 47129 (at S), 47132 (not yet in service)
No idea why BCE47129 is at S instead

How long before the 295 goes fully electric?

Its batch has to be built, delivered and registered. Also extra chargers at X has to be installed. I'd say by the end of winter time judging other garages from RATP.
