I wonder when they'll be out in service, I'm guessing not for another few weeks

Does anyone what the fleet numbers of the E200MMC's will be? Will they be 5488 - 5498? Or will they follow 5500 as its a new bus style? Would it be the same as the E400MMC's?

As they could order more.

Yep, I mentioned the Skyline livery further up because it was on the timetable but not on any buses, until now. I do really like it, it looks far better than the plain white text they've added to the other ones!

Yep, it was posted a couple days ago , and I've already made my dislike public for the location of the white stripe at the rear, it should have been moved back slightly so it didn't get obstructed by the wheel arch!

Is 6302 away getting repainted into corporate? Apparently hasn't been out since Saturday
