Hopefully, at least some of the ALXs are revived when someone realised the real vehicles that should be stood down after these changes are the 275xx E300s - given 27508 has now been VOR for the best part of 4 years, and 27507 is also now dumped in the dead row after the weekend. None of the drivers like them and they have the turning circle of a cruise ship. Plus they are actually the oldest vehicles in the fleet left in front-line service.
i do think it could also make to take the worst of the fleet out of service first, theres plenty to choose from the like of the GEN 1 E300s, the 08 E300s, the MANviro E200s to name a few, obviously if an ALX300 is on its last legs then fair enough but removing them because of age alone i think is ridiculous
