Anyone seen 699 lately? it doesn't seem to have been allocated to the 238s for the past few weeks

Been VOR for the past 13 days - it's waiting for a part, which should have been delivered yesterday all being well.

So much for the spare citaro's for the X5 then...

5292 is off the road at the moment, and 5337/38 are both allocated to service 9 today.

As well as 5292 being off the road; there are three branded Citaros off the road today (two branded for The 9, hence 5337/38 covering them, as well as a Wear Xpress branded example). Nothing Deptford can really do, but allocate another vehicle type to one of the services.

In terms of customer experience, it'd have been better to allocate a Streetlite rather than 4937, admittedly.
6160 is going round with 6138s ticket machine

Might be very soon, just got towed back to Deptford about an hour ago by Ian Bradley.
Os 8306   back in service ?
What's replacing 635/636 at Peterlee when the AD122 starts at end of the month?
With all the complaints about the app are GNE going to anything about it?

Wow I'm on a bus where the plugs work!
The rattling on this bus is bad whilst on the move. The noise stationary is driving me around the bend.

Which bus are you on?
A rattly bus with plug sockets, must be a streetlite!

I would think the "Baby Solos" from Chester once the new Solo SR's arrive for the Durham Cathedral Shuttle.

Always reinstate 4937 as a active fleet member releasing 637 to Peterlee. Then reinstate a waggonway solar to release a versa on temporary loan to Peterlee.

4937 is fixed and back on the road ready for service .... so who ever said it's withdrawn is wrong.

On fleet list it says Reserve.
