The first batch delivered are 454-62 (YN19 EEJ/M/O/P/R/S/T/U/V) for 'Brown Line' 17 (City Centre, intu Victoria Centre - Bulwell via Hucknall Road). These have replaced Omnidekkas from that route into spare roles.

Also due to be converted to Gas operation are 'Navy Line' 49 (City Centre to Boots Factory), which will be revised to operated via Queens Drive Park and Ride site from 23rd June (likely the date their E400CNGs enter service), when new service 49B also starts (the 49B will be the journeys on the 49 which terminate at the Park & Ride rather than at Boots Factory). As well, 'Pink Line' 28 (City Centre, intu Victoria Centre to Bilborough via University of Nottingham Jubilee Campus) and 'Yellow Line' 68/69 (City Centre, intu Victoria Centre to Bulwell, Snape Wood) are the only other confirmed routes - 8 in total are being upgraded to Gas-operation.

Interesting comments regarding drive to digitise timetables and routes, along with contactless provision.

(10 Jun 2020, 1:10 pm)Kuyoyo Details are now emerging on delivery dates for the latest Trent Barton E200MMCs thanks to The Derby Bus Depot

The first batch due are the 11 bound for the 'Kinchbus' fleet to replace the Citaros on 'Skylink Derby' - these are due in the next few weeks and will enter service gradually. The Citaros will then go in the opposite direction to ADL for resale - a number are understood to have already been sold to Ipswich Buses.
The second batch will be 16 for 'rainbow 1' replacing 6 year old Optare Versa V1170s (the only examples of that length in the fleet) which will be redeployed within the Trent Barton fleet with rumours of 'the sixes' mentioned.

Reports suggest that some of the remaining 25 due in 2021 will be for Sutton depot for 'the threes' replacing what will be by then 9 year Optare Versas.

It is with regret we inform our passengers, due to a significant reduction of drivers within our team and an extreme shortage of PCV drivers in Lincolnshire, we will be unable operate any Saturday bus services from the 01/01/2022 - 31/03/2022.
 
We had hoped to avoid this action taking intermediary steps on the 06/11/2021, adopting temporary reduced Saturday services. However, after further reductions in the team we find ourselves in the position whereby we must consider what is best for everyone in these exceptional circumstances. 
 
This action is not in anyway taken lightly and we hope that it is temporary; it is a big decision for a local family business as we fully appreciate both the disruption and inconvenience it may cause to loyal passengers. It is being taken with our best intentions to ensure Brylaine are able to fully operate ALL SERVICE between Monday - Friday on the days they are most needed by the communities we serve. 
 
All Monday to Friday daily commuter and education services will be unaffected by this action.
