And 5391-5394 I believe have all had a new engine 5394 came back friday after being off for just over 5 weeks
56/60/10/10A/10B all need new buses. 60 especially the eCitaro should be going on that.
60 would probs be the ideal candidate for the first electrification of a Deptford route.
Next Order should be for new buses for the 4/10/10A/10B/56/21/60
Upgrading the 21 can allow those streetdecks to go onto older services e.g 47/57/58/Loops/27
There won't be any new Decker's until at least 2026, the company is dripping money. No way will they be investing in it, there's more chance of the whole thing being divested at this rate unless it turns around fast but it's still a mess with numerous cancellations daily and if my bus didn't turn up more than once I'd be looking for alternatives as I couldn't be chewed with that and nor can most other people.
The whole of GNE is a complete mess even known this was supposed to end the start of Summer 2022, end of Summer 2022, the last cuts, the cuts before that. The temporary timetables which aren't temporary at all which is just taking customers as mugs and so on. If you're going to make long term cuts least have the bottle to be honest rather than hiding behind lies.
