From next week, the minibus allocation at Deptford will be revised, coinciding with the two "Nexus" branded Optare Solos moving onto pastures new into the heart of Hadrian's empire.
- 3x MPD: Service 38
- 3x MPD: Service 238
- 1x MPD: npower shuttle
When 559 transfers to Deptford, this will provide two spare MPDs to cover a minibus PVR of 7.
Service 99, which is currently allocated 2x MPD, will instead operate with 2x Volvo B10BLE.
The board on service 238 which runs onto the secured evening 38C service (allocated a Solo), will no longer do so, due to the Euro 5 contractual requirement. The 38C service will instead run off service 60, and as such will be allocated a "Drifter" branded Streetlite. The Sunday service of both 38C and 135/136 will be operated by a "SimpliCity" branded Optare Versa.
Keeping the fleet news theme going:
Will Stanley get another decker to replace 3873?

So the 0650 x36 from downhill will now use a mpd

Probably.
Let's just hope it is one of the better ones.
4899 now has a Northern front panel, presumably off 5171.
I was on the X1 today and I was just thinking to myself "what software do they use for the NSA's"
I've tried contacting GNE, but they have not responded. If anyone knows can you please reply Thanks

We use a Hanover product.
Older vehicles have a HANCIS unit in but the new vehicles have a HTC unit. There is a picture of one if u click on HTC on the link below.

Like what software do you use to import the NSA's onto the HTC Unit. I know Helen is for the Destination Blinds.
I am guessing you mean, what we use to actually build the files - If it is in Line Plan format we use something call Line Plan, and for the LED displays we use Hanover Central.

Well, not rare but definitely not correct. As Dan stated in his post, the allocation of service 99 will change to Volvo B10BLEs.

More likely to be an indirect transfer. Likely a Pronto B7TL to say Percy Main, and a Trident from Percy Main.
As IIRC DCC specify a minimum seating capacity on Double Deckers used on some of their school services (prob just the one in Lanchester) which I think used to be around the 75 mark.
Hence why Stanley gained a large number of older deckers over the years because they had plenty of seats, but prevented Optare Spectras from being based there because they only seated 71.
This was the case a few years ago, I'm not sure if it's still the case now.
For those of you interested in sampling the new Next Stop Announcements - every Merc at Washington has been updated and the majority of Volvo B9s have too. There's a couple of B9s with faults meaning that some couldn't be updated or the screens are slightly misaligned.
