(27 Jan 2015, 8:20 pm)Tom Not long at all - most of them have been withdrawn, and 7458 should be withdrawn when 7518 enters service from repair.

(28 Jan 2015, 10:30 am)tvd The power sockets on the Sapphire buses hardly ever seem to be working on the 5's or X4's. Do they need to be manually switched on by the driver, or are there known issues with them..?

(28 Jan 2015, 1:05 pm)palatine3833 The problem with the 23s is that you only have half an hour between trips. So say you are on 23A arr. 1252 then you go back out on 23B at 1327 - if you come in late from the first one then technically you can't get back on the bus until 30 mins after you sign off the first bus. In theory there should be a contingency plan for when delays happen, maybe a spare driver or even longer breaks; but that would mean more money haha.Completely understand that - but why are buses being left on stands in Park Lane? The wrong stands at that?
