RTP OM20232 has been VOR since 2018 does anyone know if it will re-enter service. It was re-taxed in June so it looks like it’s return isn’t far off, but could potentially be having it’s overdue MOT and inspections being done and also having a refurbishment. I believe RATP could be refurbishing the Metrocities in house at Epsom as they have a paint facility there but not sure but to be out for for 2 years is along time

WVN 21 is back in service on route 5. Returned on the 23/7 after last being used back in March. Generally the 2 WVNs at RR don’t get used out of school term, so not surprising to see big gaps between it being out when schools are closed.

The Tower Transit DH's seem to have vanished again :
Last seen:
DH38501 SN65ZGO 02-09-2020 04:30 19:50 DH38502 SN65ZGP 24-08-2020 04:15 20:00 DH38503 SN65ZGR 03-04-2020 07:00 20:50
I wonder if they will return or they have now finished.

With all due apologies, I'll hide behind the "newbie" wall for this first posting!
According to LVF, DEL2612 (YX19OVR) has yet to enter service, but I recall reading somewhere that it has a faulty iBus unit and is working the 112 route with the rest of the batch. However, when I recently checked LVF, the 112 was showing a full PVR complement (actually all the batch except 2612!) and as an aside the 316 was also showing full PVR in use. Admittedly 2612 'could' have been off the road having a tea break but I'm somewhat sceptical. A quick search on Google shows none of the usual expected pictures other than a PR shot. So, can anyone confirm it's current status please.

Ah, interesting. Wasn't aware of trials but thought most recent deliveries have camera mirrors. Question thus expands to is it being used in parallel on 112 [uncertain in the current world!] which might explain no iBus, or is it hiding somewhere.
