(11 Apr 2016, 8:59 am)Panasonic44 Crusader doesnt need wifi, instead it needs newer buses e.g off 21 Angle and NSA.

I strongly suspect that the mercs currently on the 27 might be in better nick than the hybrids on the angel.

The 21 and 27 are around the same time wise to, not sure how they would cope on the 27, maybe a smaller route would suit them better? however i have no idea what route(s) that could be.

I also think that if advertised well and improved the X36 could carry more people and be more frequent

They would have to miss a few area's out which i don't think would be fair, could loose out on more money that way.

With the upcoming changes in May to the X36, i think we will see it drop to hourly.

Wonder if 5248 will move to Washington as a spare role for the 5/50.

It will only move over once the Streetlites enter service.
