(11 Feb 2023, 10:44 pm)N391OTY Jim Hughes out in force today on Metro replacements from Haymarket to Regent Centre and Four Lane Ends. Of particular note, I saw two yellow Scania Omnicity deckers, VNP 893 and YSV 815, also white decker TVE 804 with Tamar Coaches (Plymouth) fleetname on the front. Not sure but possibly Scania Omnidekka ?

3 Scania OmniDekka. 2 white, 1 red
2 Scania OmniCity both yellow
2 Volvo B9TL Wright Eclipse Gemini 2 both in the old Tyres livery

Bustimes.org has now put up the 30 as canceled by Jh. Guessing the 31 is also canceled by them as well

I don't see why the 6 doesn't just replace the 30, every hour to Lanchester via Quaking Houses, then hourly just to Quaking Houses

They can't use coaches - the contract requires low-floor double-deck buses which are mincap84.

I assume it'll be worked by a omnicity DD then, as being ex-london it'll be euro 6.

Probably, or the Volvo B9s.

But they could even put B7s on if they’ve factored the CAZ penalty into their price.

I *think* the two ex Nottingham Scanias, two ex Belle Vue Scanias, two ex Tyrers B9TLs and an ex Tamar Coaches OmniDekka are Euro 6, so that makes 7.

I don't understand why people are questioning JH's ability to run this.

Given that they've won this one, we can rest easy knowing that the tender process will have been ran to complete perfection...!

Doesn’t really matter how many are Euro6 really… it’s a contracted service so whoever is paying for it (Nexus, I assume?) will pick up the cost of any fines as part of the tender price.
