(12 Nov 2025, 6:28 am)S830OFT wrote Was just thinking if the Gas Buses are due to be replaced this week, would it be a good move to reinstate some of the Euro 6 241xx series MANs from Slatyford & operate them out of Sunderland?I don’t think the 241’s would be a good idea at Sunderland they’re not great buses.
I'm sure there's also some 271 series E300s still due to return service that could possibly allow more 280s to be withdrawn & if that's still not enough, more cascades from other divisions.
It would be ideal once the charging situation is sorted for Slatyford for them to take their remaining 6 Yutongs & then have the majority of the fleet operating in the correct places...
73191-73194 must be due back from Scotland soon with them now receiving their batch of E12’s so I can see them 4 going to Sunderland on loan for a bit
