It all depends on the severity of the damage. Obviously it wouldn't be worth fixing up a bus if the entire thing caught fire. And it's also convenient that they can in this instance simply take all the bits and bobs from another bus that's mechanically alright but structurally unsound.
Not really, 3729 could easily be repaired, 3771s fire damage was that bad so it makes sense to use components from 29 to fix it.
Trent recently rebuilt a 11 plate versa that was worse than 3771.
More than welcome to them
Two more, not including 4600More than welcome to them
Over the Leicester end should be 2-3 electrics left to enter service.
Understand they're to replace the 41xx volvo/olympus deckers which are due to go to Luton.
theres normally 1 decker on one of the school routes, one of the 3/3as all day and one which is kept for morning and evening x10s
I seem to recall the Arriva timetable cases on Railway Terrace were about 8ft off the ground.
The one opposite the Brunswick?
Yes
3552 wasn’t withdrawn, I removed it by mistake after being misinformed, I’d be shocked to see 3559 back, it had slipped into quite an unreliable stage.
Ah alright, fair enough.
Yeah i was shocked to see it, at first i thought i had read 3557 wrong, but 3557 doesn't have the fleet number next the the blind whereas 3559 has which was a key identifier when i checked to see what it was after I got back home
3554 has the FN at the front… could’ve been that
Nah, i dislike that bus, I would of realised if it was that one lol
E400mmc 4564 has been at Barwell depot for the past week, training on the mirrors must've taken place recently.
Its back tracking now so hopefully means it can be proven alot more easily that its back
I think today's allocations were done by throwing darts at a pinboard of fleet numbers.
... and 3136 is on the 44.
?? Very normal surely ?
3148 has camera mirrors. My guess is that they've been swapped as more of Hinckley's drivers get trained to use the mirrors.
