GNE Questions about fleet withdrawals/buses VOR/fleet questions
(15 Jan 2023, 6:24 pm)Michael Sure I read somewhere, the plans this year was to start to withdraw the Versa's.I think someone said on here that they think 2020 was going to have a massive order to replace Versas and Citaros for Deptford.

(26 Jan 2023, 2:14 pm)morritt89 Are Deptfords Mercs due to be withdrawn next week? My source informed me that they are meant to be going (unsure what would replace them - maybe Graphite Solos?) along with the coaches and possibly a decker with the loss of 3 school boards.Decker would be 6049.

It looks as if the DFDS Omnidekka 6144 has been withdrawn, it looked to be parked up and debranded in PM. Also at the depot of what looked to be a number of ex London Gemini 2s of which 6204 was one of them which was in roadstripe livery. Not sure if there are actually going to be dedicated replacements for the DFDS Omnidekkas.
Does anyone know whats happened to any of these?:
5407 County Ranger - Been off since December 5th
5445 East Gateshead Orbit - Been off since December 5th
5467 Corporate Streetlite - 24th December
5470 Coaster - 22nd December
5493 Green Arrow - 17th December
6306 Corporate StreetDeck - 9th Nov
6337 Jubilee Enviro 400MMC - 22nd Nov
5431 Prince Bishops - 26th November

(28 Jan 2023, 10:36 am)Dan 6144 will be donating its engine to 6165.
6049 has transferred from Sunderland, 6225 is due to transfer from Riverside (but is currently VOR), and 6204 should be entering service (went through MOT yesterday).
6147/48 to transfer to Riverside tonight (but also due imminent withdrawal) providing temporary cover while E400s are away for repaint.

(28 Jan 2023, 12:06 pm)Dan Nothing interesting.What omnidekka's are going today/tomorrow and which ones are being kept? Ex-Quaycity's for the 57?
6945, 6950/51 and 6959/60 still await repaint into fleet livery.
6950 is at Gardiners, 6959/60 are at London Bus Works.
After no repaints at Saltmeadows since August, things are starting back up again here. 6967 was the first repaint of the new year, the Quaycity Versa will follow suit into fleet livery.
