After doing the official route learning (I already knew the routing) With a DDE, I think 10.8m can just about go around the route but parking issues would be a nightmare for one, especially when you need to get into passing gaps and also some turns you would end up going over the pavement depending on how people have parked. But at the other end won’t the DDEs be too small for the 226? I said this a couple pages back.

Is H14 at CP temporarily or permantly? Temporarily from what I've been told.

CP is also closed on 26/27/1/2, hence the more open intermixing between garages, as H14 drivers are collecting their buses from BT.

Now we are only 10 days away, anyone know what is happening with fleets from following
142 and 642 lost to Metroline (7 Jan), which routes get ADEs
How many BEs will be ready for take up of 226 on 7 Jan Will any other buses make up balance, if so which ones
Loss of 635 (14 Jan) will presumably see 3 more SPs stood down

Turned upto work this morning and found BCE47167 on the ramp, took no real notice of it at first until I was walking past and saw the seats. Then decided to check out the rest of the interior and the bus. RATP have decided to join in with the skylight roof, laminate floor, highback seats, rear destination blinds and no more glass staircase. I much prefer this spec to the previous ones especially now they have got rid of the glass on the staircase.
Photos are on my Flickr.

BCE 47167 is half way through the batch of 21 buses, so good sign that plenty are now delivered

Oooo these look nice but unlike yourself I do much prefer the glass staircase, so to me if it had that it would be perfection🤩

Can't stand the glass staircase on anybus.
