(15 May 2016, 7:19 pm)Dan Every single "SimpliCity" branded Optare Versa at Deptford has gained the 'every 15 minutes' vinyls as a replacement for the current 'every 10 minutes'.
This would suggest that the four released from the 2/2A will be allocated to another route at Deptford which operates at a 15-minute frequency.

(15 May 2016, 7:27 pm)Tom What other routes are every 15 minutes though? I was thinking the 39 with the Lambton Worm versas but you already said it would be allocated Solars. Can't think of any other route that's every 15 minutes and requires 4 buses.

(15 May 2016, 7:31 pm)Tom I think everything is fine as it is - what do you reckon could be changed? The 17 maybe could be changed as the reliability is a bit crap, but the 1, 309/310 etc. all seem to be running fine as they are.

(15 May 2016, 7:36 pm)Michael Not sure on the brand name yet or if they'll be the Blue or Red ones which will be allocated to the 39.
So did we in Sunderland but then they changed most of the services haha

(15 May 2016, 8:34 pm)Malarkey Think it should be the red ones (5211 to 5217) branded "Black Cats" for the 39, with the livery as shown on the Cadets before that plan was scrapped.
Furthermore I think the 17/17A will gain various corporate livery spare Wright Solars, I would go with 4974 to 4976 & 4989 to 4992.
As for the Blue Solars, no idea where they could go, 11/96 maybe.

Question I've been meaning to ask for a while.... Why was 3941 deemed Not suitable for service 434/448? I know it was sent from Riverside to Percy Main to upgrade the service and improve reliability, but what was the problem?
I know the 434 doesn't seem to carry many passengers but I think it's the scholars service where the large amount of passengers are, otherwise I would think a minibus would be more than suitable.

I know it was sent from Riverside to Percy Main to upgrade the service and improve reliability, but what was the problem?I think it's because it is a full height Volvo B7 and some of the branches of the tree are too thick and could lead to a fatal accident and if I am not mistaken the is a bridge that is just able to fit east lance lolyn under. but lately the 434 has been operated by the X-WRG variety or 5166 or wright solars, also I do agree with thetravelman that 434 should be operated by minibus as the passenger numbers are quite low
