Hi,

1. Do Hansons intend to paint E200's 2600 & 2601 in to fleet livery once the current repaint program for the 52 plate Darts is complete?

2. Isn't 2600 a larger E200 than the other four? Both Tony's fleetlist & Bus lists on the web have it as a 29 seater, but I'm sure it is a larger 37 seater when I've seen it on the 226. (Already answered below)

Good luck with the 004 frequency increase from tomorrow btw. Hanson's seem to have done well building that back up.

MX60BXA 2600 is a B37F E200 looking at the inside seating capacity bit when on board.

Thanks, I was sure it was bigger as it has the high back seating & seat belts if I remember right?

Hi Winston .
Were trying to work through the fleet at the moment,though we have`nt got a particular order as its probably down to major down time for other issues.
Thanks for the good wishes regarding the 004.

As a heads up for all on here.Look out for 2610 which is carrying a 70th birthday greeting to Margaret from the staff.2601 normally on Kinver-Brockmoor.

Hi,

With the X26 now being withdrawn from 7th August, will the surplus buses be redeployed elsewhere after that date? As not seen on new registrations/variations go in to VOSA.

Jay

Is that being used to replace an older bus? As with that plus the withdrawal of the X26 would mean you have excess buses

the trainbasher

Hey there.

Do you know what route RXT is planned to be used on mainly when it comes into service?

Hi,

Just looking at your fleetlist, there seems to be a fair amount of excess buses for the routes operated. Do you have anything planned with the spares?
