I think it's a false tracking. On Saturday it was 6223 not 6233. Could be accurate now, I haven't seen it.

6993 at Saltmeadows today, guessing this is the spare for the Toon Tour. Would anyone know the registration number for this?

Does it not track? How do you know when it's on?

Wasn’t there a few more secondhand streetlites to arrive?, I’m sure it was mentioned before that there were still in use down south

Perhaps the ones from Swindon could replace the last of the most elderly Versa in the GNE fleet?
