However with the timeliness of electric buses starting operating on routes when they should do, I can imagine that the LTs will transfer to Abellio for a few months until the electric buses are ready to be actually used?Yes, in the likely event that Abellio are late to be able to introduce their electric buses on route 111 they would borrow the LTs in the interim. TF depot already have LTs for route 267 so are familiar with them.
