I definitely think someone at HQ should look to recruit some in from somewhere, to replace some of the less reliable vehicles. The constant failure of MAX or Sapphire vehicles is making a mockery of the branding and customers are starting to notice. A couple of weeks ago, I was complimented on my "lovely new bus" on X26, "much better than them other big buses"! I was driving 59 plate Solo 2853 in place of a Scania.
I think that the Euro 5+ E400 examples have been good so far bar a few issues here and there despite the B9TLs being the best of the bunch. All down to how they're looked after.
7476 on 306
Single Decker Max on 308
4661 WAS on 55 along with 1775 and 2601.
7807 X9
2801 46
Many, many AL300s on 43/44/45s and in turn Pulsars on 52/53
1580 was on the X21/2 again today (pretty sure it's registration ended with 'EEB' anyway), followed it through Bedlington around 11:20, on its way to Ashington on an X22.
