9003 (SN18 CVV) was at the MetroCentre today, caught it leaving at 4pm thanks to a tip off from Ray Parnaby who I seen whilst at the MetroCentre - https://www.flickr.com/photos/adammalarkey/45926952231/in/dateposted-public/
I was speaking to the Driver who advised me some of the new Enviro500's will go on Airlinks, 2 will be for Lothian Motor Coaches TBC with the remaining for normal service work, Driver also mentioned they'll be expanding further with the Motor Coaches also in 2019.

With regard to an updated Lothian fleet list:
I have no connection to the following website but there is a Lothian fleetlist to early Dec in xls format. See the following site and click on the Lothian section.

This seems to get updated monthly.

A bizarre decision not to have them registered as "19" plates if they're not to be used until March.
