44679-44690 still in service at Overtown currently. Not seen anymore ex London E200s at Overtown yet and not seen the one they have out in service either.

It was due a repaint as when I seen it about a week ago or so I noticed the rear emergency exit door had new panels which weren't painted yet.

Spotted a ex London E200 parked in Overtown today. Never caught fleet number

I have noticed a few airport buses running today with branding either all removed or partially. Anyone any idea's what is happening with them? new branding or they getting electrics? Edit: Looking on Flickr it looks like they have just had a repaint to freshen them up

With Blantyre depot due to get chargers next I doubt Glasgow will send any electric buses to anywhere else especially single deckers.

The dimensions of the wheelchair space permit the carriage of a wheelchair no longer than 1200mm and no wider than 700mm (the dimensions of a standard ‘reference’ wheelchair as specified in the Public Service Vehicle Accessibility Regulations 2000).

I passed JMB's 2 new 24 plate Evoras today which when I passed them were on the 5. Looking smart but not sure about the black light clusters compared to the 22 plate examples which are painted to blend in with the livery. First time I have noticed them this week so not sure if today was their...

Thanks for confirming, I did have a feeling they may have been for the 41. Yeah totally understand regarding not posting the vehicle in the paintshop. Its hard to tell by your pictures but are these vehicles just standard spec as the interior poles look different from the current vehicles in the...

JMB seem to have taken delivery of at least 2 brand new MCV Evora Volvo B8RLEs. I wasn't sure if they were just parked there for a dealer as I noticed them parked near the entrance to the depot a few weeks ago but David Oakley has got a few snaps on Flickr confirming they actually are JMB's. I...

I personally think the E200EVs look a lot better without the green electric branding. Just makes the fleet look a lot smarter personally. Anyone else think the same?

I am pretty sure Glasgow's twitter is handled by a central customer service team in England or it was at one point which is probably the reason for lack of information.

How have the Yutong buses been in terms of reliability since they have been out in service with Glasgow? Do we think it will sway the next order of EVs to Yutong or will Glasgow stay with E200 EVs? From what I have heard, the drivers prefer the Yutong vehicles over the E200 EVs with some...

Thanks for confirming. Do you know what they are replacing?

I heard that more ex London E200s are incoming. Does anyone know what depot they are going to be allocated to? I wouldn't be surprised if they end up in Lanarkshire and Overtown/Blantyre lose E200MMCs in the process.

The problem with the urban livery is, its all over the place. disregarding the branded vehicles, some have plain fronts (E400evs as example), small purple section (B9TLs), large purple section (E200,E300,E400classic), near full purple front example (44679). Flickr link to 44679 By Kieran It...

You could also argue that Cook Street has far too many signs which itself is a hazard to any motorist. More to the point though, Cook Street bridge has a flashing height warning sign to the junction of Salkeld Street (If it even works). The diversions in Glasgow have no doubt played a part in...

They are parked in Campbell's yard in Alexandria and have done for months. As far as I am aware their fate hasn't been determined yet. Last I heard the book value was too high to scrap them and they were looking at options to get them converted but all went silent. They were moved out to...

Would make sense to use this vehicle now as a donor once First get it back from Police Scotland to get one of the E40H back on the road. Since they are lying rotting away.

Likely will be withdrawn due to age. 33908 SN11 FPA E400 was the vehicle involved.
