(23 Jun 2018, 1:50 pm)Michael There's going to be 18 arriving (3 already here), only a handful of presidents remain, so should see them replaced and hopefully the other omnidekka's replace the current older ones, meanjng they could move in to the special events fleet replacing the Vykings then any of the ex London Gemini's can be added to the special events fleet, if needed.

When will they enter service?
Also when will the longer omnidekkas enter service, seen about 3 ready to go at riverside yesterday?

(18 Jun 2018, 5:41 pm)Dan ..and just like that, voila! A brand new fleet list is born.



Thanks - you may want to fine-tune on the detail included on our fleet list.

Not too sure on some of the liveries, nor was I sure on which buses had which features. For now, anyway!

(22 Jun 2018, 5:36 pm)Dan I don't think 5230 is blue.

Driver training routes are everywhere. The test involves nearly an hour's worth of driving.

There's two of those at Riverside - the first of that batch to be amalgamated into the GNE fleet.

They form part of the 34 being acquired to operate the Tall Ships services.

Massive amount of Park and Ride services for it, according to VOSA, didn't expect to see so many.
