Quote from: 2206 on September 27, 2023, 06:06:35 PMNormally a B7RLE or E200 I think.
Looking at bus times history that evening 17:15 working looks to be a B7RLE daily.

The scanias used to be used on there a lot. Not so much these days.

Still it's hardly noteworthy.

Quote from: Jack on September 27, 2023, 05:44:58 PM@Owen, not noteworthy at all, it's just off its branded route.
Allocations are usually b7rles, and e200s secondary. I've never seen a Scania on there since the routes transfer from PB. It's also 4 branded which is never really seen working in the Sutton area even on the 77/A.

I've seen plenty of Scania's on the 77, it's not that interesting at all, branded or unbranded.

It's been a long time since a scania appeared on the X15
If I happen see something noteworthy I'll write it down for people who are interested... or else there wouldn't be a pinned thread.

I don't think many people are interested unless it's ultra noteworthy like a SWB on a busy Decker service... I think most people aren't bothered anymore, since 2020 vehicles are used more widespread...

6750 has made an appearance on X15 very rare as not seen a WA decker on it since. Although PB used deckers every day.

Thought the 9 had swopped to Wolves today?

Bustimes suggests it hasn't, unless it swops tomorrow instead?
