Correct. CV are to receive 4983-4995 for the 13 service (So 13 not 10) . These will replace Mercedes Benz 0405N single deckers

And there is mention of these buses in the Enviro 400 thread on the NXWM section of the forum.

Tony has posted the registrations of these buses on the main site if you want a look

And 13 x E400's are due not 10.

A report on the WMbus Yahoo group suggests 4983 has arrived today!

4983 did the evening 27A as well yesterday, but neither 4983 or 4984 are in use today, and 4985 isn't on the system yet
