(30 Aug 2015, 5:55 pm)Michael Deptford seem to be loosing their B10's quick.... were 3 down now with 4896/4897 also going to Riverside....
It makes sense to get as many Volvo B10BLEs as possible into Riverside Depot from an operational perspective, as this is where the majority are allocated already. I'd imagine that fleet engineers would much rather have a consistent and standardised fleet rather than one of every single vehicle type, as they'll be better equipped to have spare parts (and in turn will be able to get the bus back out on the road quicker), and they'll have a better knowledge of how to repair a specific fault on that vehicle type.
