Although standards have slightly slipped in the past week or two at Deptford (mainly due to a shortage of 'mini' vehicles - with two MPDs on loan to Peterlee, one to Washington and another to Percy Main), allocations have improved significantly compared to a few months ago.
Most days in recent weeks, so I am told, Deptford has had no odd allocations (excluding corporate liveried spares) from the start of service. Those odd allocations that we have seen have been replacements during the day, often covering for breakdowns.
I've stopped chasing this one up now with friends at Deptford (given that it was getting quite repetitive), but for over a week the "Drifter" had a full Streetlite allocation. One was noted on service 29 yesterday, but I'm guessing this was a breakdown replacement and the bus was VOR on the morning.
I have to take back my bad review of the streetlite... its proved that it all of them can be on the road at once.
Although i think they should of bought a spare for it!
