I think 2014 is a good year for Abellio, not being bias but losing the 100 and gaining the 49! That's a deal I think most companies would go for as well as practically ridding most of their 97/8**s (TAs) for brand new Euro 5/6 Enviro400Hs.

Apparently Abellio refused to re-bid for the 407 and some of their drivers have been moving to other garages for route training, this means the route is Go-Ahead's too loose!

Don't forget Arriva, they have the hunger for that routes as they lost it (ex-Grey Green). Although they were using DDs and some not-worthy-of-being-in-a-contract SDs |

415 to WL ... So WL is full according to EastLondoner and it cannot gain any more routes have routes moved there? >>> Is this correct?

I know i'm not, would wish but..... yeah [AFAIK], i see it full all the time tbh, the C10 can be moved to QB then the 415, there will be enough space as 415 has a PVR of 7 compared to the C10, or sacrifice to BC which won't happen as WL is close, I'm looking forward to the 109 to BC than 415 [although it's near for me than 109. I believe 109 will be **** or pure luck, ALNS did a good job though, sad it will go from BN. It will give space for BN anyways so the 59's buses can go to BN in a full allocation. N became like WL [for now] btw. |

Quite a decent operator but could do with some Wright Gemini's!

8 Alexander Dennis Enviro400MMC Hybrids have been noted with Abellio's interior and details but not confirmed to be going to Abellio as of yet.

They might be 415's, I expect them to be 49's, but not 109 nor 415.

It was seen that two new Alexander Dennis Enviro 400 Hybrids went on route C2 and 414 respectively
Either the "rumor" of C2 and 211 getting them, or going to originally planned, for C3

The MMC version Enviro400s are due out from September on the 64 plate. The 8 buses noted are identical to 2401-43 except that these new ones are euro VI. These are for the E1 at WS (Hayes) bus garage. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

You welcome! 2444-51 are now at WS on the E1, which they won earlier this month from Metroline. 2452-64 were ordered for the C3 but will most likely be used on other QB routes while the C3 uses older Enviro400s. 2465-86 are due are for the 49.

This is the MMC (Major Model Change) Enviro400, this particular bus being a fully diesel version.
The identical looking hybrid version is due for production from September, so it's likely that the 109, 415 and the school bus part of the 407 will be with them.

It is precisely decided what type the 201 would use; ADL Enviro200Hybrid buses. I am happy that they are actual hybrids and not flywheel attached ones  . New timetable for 201 |
