I don’t think it is for definite, I just remember reading a post from someone fairly reliable that’s where they’re headed which I’m trying to locate. Hence my use of the word ‘apparently’, certainly not for definite Would be good for these buses to find a more permanent home instead of constantly shifting from route to route. I would bet they will be going the 452, but every route those OMEs touch seem to turn to dust 😂 Sod’s Law the 452 tender will come out and it will also move operators, then they’ll need to find another home 😂 oh yeah; then they’ll head to the 414 and then the route will be withdrawn, then they’ll need to find another route!!🤣🤣 (all in jest btw)

From the 29th June 2024 route 440 will begin its operations at Stamford Brook garage. Notice is in the depot don’t know how to add pictures so you’ll have to take my word for it

Notice is in the depot don’t know how to add pictures so you’ll have to take my word for it I thought it already ran from V garage! Tells you how much I know.... To post photos you go to the bottom of the page, press 'desktop' and then on a post there's an option for 'add attachment' which allows photos to be posted

Notice is in the depot don’t know how to add pictures so you’ll have to take my word for it No surprise there, makes sense that it is moving over to V when the 211 goes to Abellio. Looks like RP will be down to the 224 as its only single decker route remaining - it fairly recently had the 223, 224, 228, 440 and H17. I wonder if a similar move will take place at TV when the 465 is lost, with the K3 moving in?

You've also got the 18 and 224 out to tender. Quite a bit at stake

To be honest I think RP will close regardless of other results, I believe its lease ends in 2027 and it is surrounded by new developments. If RATP bid for the 258 out of RP then they aren't gonna have a chance of retaining it anyway, they will most likely bid for it from BT/CP.

Quite a bit at stake The 18 will probably move to X, especially given how empty it is now. I can't see RATP losing it given the lack of garage space Metroline have in the area, although they could potentially win the 224 and squeeze it into WJ.

I’m expecting RATP to retain the 258, if they lose the 125 they can move the 258 rightly back out to London Sovereign.

However 18 would be a shocker if lost. More so as an easier said than done route to manage. Plus would depend how keen Metroline are to get the 266/295 back when space issues are becoming apparent, assuming those get terminated early of course. 258/266 of course too close to call imo to estimate. How much can RP afford to lose at this rate? That saying I can see an route or two move to BT if 125 lost as someone mentioned.🤔

I think the 440 will take its DMEs with it as don’t think there’s anything to replace them with.
