(24 Sep 2015, 1:47 pm)Michael Me too but doesn't look like it atm.
Honestly thought the 97/97A/X97 will of got new/newer buses this year... but they seem to be sticking to Scania's for the time being...
Not sure whats happening to the 64/64A, it hasn't appeared on VOSA yet... hopefully those services are gone and they decided just to replace them with the 95.... lol
Where would they come from if you wanted to replace them without buying brand new?

Well it all depends if the buses from London are leased and if GNE can buy them from the company/companies which lease them out.
Wouldn't mind the Ciatro's from them next year though....
Dan made a list of whats coming available... only if they're aren't leased:

I did but then Dan said they were 12 years old and it would be pointless to convert to single door...
The Evo's sound alright though....

(24 Sep 2015, 9:13 am)Michael About time!
Glad they've finally put WIFI on the X7, hopefully means the numbers go up..... next it needs stop announcements and plugs
Will the Venture Solo SR's ever get WIFI.. seems daft giving it to Indigo and not Venture...
Has the stop announcements being done for Indigo yet?
When the Ventures first came the timetable advertised free WiFi.

I don't think it did?
The Ventures are mostly local services at the moment (different stories when the changes start) so the buses don't need wifi.

They're 12 years old this year - with only at least 3 years left in service - Dan said GNE wouldn't go for them as they would have to be converted from Duel to Single doors, pointless when they only have a few years left at least.
Anyway, rather have Citaro's than Omncities.

In all serious, that colour suits the Scania's so much... lets hope they don't spoil it with the brand
Even though the last lot of brands have being good!

Agreed, it does look quite good on the Scania's although I even liked this colour on the Lambton Worm SPDs.

Just thought I'd throw this in the hat....
Maybe the green Solar's are for the Lambton Worm? With the Versa's going elsewhere?
