Has coach 9107 (YN14 FVR) left the fleet yet? With it been a coach, it is one of the less talked about things on the forum.

(22 Oct 2015, 5:11 pm)R852 PRG wrote Yes, but as Dan has said; Percy Main did not have the number of buses to cover the 327, so a bus had to be called from Riverside. The Streetdeck just happened to be the bus that was used.
(22 Oct 2015, 3:35 pm)S813 FVK wrote Why are you obsessed with wanting GNE to put the Streetdeck on the TEN services? It isn't going to happen as there is nothing wrong with the B9s (no reason to compare with them either unlike the cobalt clipper) on there at the moment so you might as well just not get your hopes up.

(22 Oct 2015, 5:36 pm)S813 FVK wrote And what is that meant to achieve? People aren't reading posts resulting in the same thing being repeated. Is that a reportable offence?
(22 Oct 2015, 4:26 pm)Dan wrote Not to my knowledge - think it's still with us..? Sure I heard it was still kicking about last weekend.
(22 Oct 2015, 10:20 pm)GMitchelhill wrote It hasn't been unknown in the past for Riverside (previously Sunderland Road) to throw on extra buses on the 327 to cope with extra deman.
(22 Oct 2015, 2:35 pm)R852 PRG wrote Can't help but wonder, if Riverside has supposedly got the best mechanical facilities out of all of the depots within the company, why has it been sent back to Percy Main to receive maintenance?Why would it go to Perry Main for maintenance.

(23 Oct 2015, 2:57 pm)S813 FVK wrote Stanley has a miracle worker it may seem. 3814 was so powerful not even 3831 could overtake it.
Basically, 3814 IS FIXED!
(23 Oct 2015, 3:10 pm)R852 PRG wrote I personally think the service changes in Stanley and some more OmniDekkas from Brighton & Hove could result in some more withdrawals. So not for long.
(23 Oct 2015, 3:37 pm)S813 FVK wrote I would say 3822 and 3832 need to go first like. Would love to have a ride on 3814 before it goes.
(23 Oct 2015, 3:43 pm)R852 PRG wrote Inclined to agree; 3822 and 3832 have always provided poorer rides than the superb 3830 and 3831. I still need 3814 for haulage, the only Olympian that I need now. Will be annoyed if I don't manage to catch it before it goes.
(23 Oct 2015, 3:50 pm)Jimmi wrote 3831 has to be my favourite of the ones I've been on, but I also can't seem to catch a ride on 3814, annoyingly when I do get an Olympian it's almost always 3830 which is fine but would quite like a different one, especially as I'm certainly well covered for photographs of that one now.
(23 Oct 2015, 7:11 am)Dan wrote 4941 is now branded and out on 97/98 today (would have been on a 96 early doors as they interwork).that on its way to flickr now as we speak
The first two that were branded are still off the road for PSV, and 4940 is undergoing branding at the moment at Saltmeadows Rd.
(23 Oct 2015, 3:11 pm)S813 FVK wrote 6129 has entered service:same as the post above its on its way to flickr caught it on the last X43
