It was mentioned when T260 moved in it was a replacement for T278 that was due to move to TC for the 645. Just took a few months ... which they had as the contract does not start until end of month. Wonder if it means T277 will now follow. I completely forgot that moved in, that happens when you don't check any info on the system and just use the old brain I believe HV269 Is due back at AD also as it was sent to EC and then AR as a refurb float

How much longer until these SW’s at AD get withdrawn and replaced? I don’t think all 10 of them have ever been on the road at the same time? They seem to be really unreliable in particular SW1 which works for 2 weeks to a month and then is off the road again? Surely there are other vehicles in the Arriva fleet that would be suitable for the 340? They must be costing arriva a fortune in maintenance?

Don’t WN and AD swap buses regularly? Its permanent, T278 will move to TC for the 645 by October. Makes sense all of AD’s T’s have been refurbed and T278 is the only one without garage codes, now we know why!!!!

Just a loan back at WN today on the 29 That didn't last long I thought it was going back permanently. Is HV90 a permanent transfer? I believe it is, HV64-90 are allocated to AD

What I tend to find is if AD borrow a bus from WN it will go on the 141 as the WN blind sets still have 141 from when WN used to operate the route. A WN to AD permanent transfer you will find the bus in question will venture onto the 102 or 329

Looks like DW139 has taken over meal relief duties with T54 now allocated to the 675. I managed to capture them side by side at AD earlier today...... View AttachmentNice one! Where was this captured? EC? I captured them at AD

Finally managed to catch T54 at AD, confirmed by a nice member of staff that it is in fact the meal relief bus as previously mentioned... Attachment Deleted

I had a feeling that was a loaner. Both AD - WN do occasionally loan buses between both of them. Brings back memories of the old days when WN and AD used to share metrobuses all of the time!!!!

Was great to see T53 as today's 675 (via LVF). Lovely surprise as I was, perhaps late to the party as usual, expecting a B5TL off the 34! It reminds me of when we got the odd LJ08 stray from DX onto the 275 prior to the contract change in 2012 - nice they've done full circle (albeit two different batches). Though in recent times, the LJ08 learners have been doing Highams Park / Walthamstow too.... any chance we'll see this / any E400 on the 34? The older T's have already been on the 34 since Arriva won it. T53 was parked up this morning at AD before leaving for the 675 so looks like it is indeed AD operating the route like suggested previously
