Just read this about the forthcoming changes in Dundee.

https://www.thecourier.co.uk/fp/news/local/dundee/190965/services-dundee-lost-cost-cutting-bus-shake-announced/

Sounds like those route cuts will allow a few Dundee Presidents to be withdrawn.

That proposal may well get affected by this.

https://www.thecourier.co.uk/fp/news/local/dundee/191567/stagecoach-confirms-that-dundee-bus-depot-will-close/

It's been well known that Stagecoach were planning on closing Dundee base long before the service cuts / changes were proposed

From what I have gathered , the changes will be pretty similar PVR wise , only a bus or two difference.... Please remember that this local paper is published by the same company that produces Beano and Dandy.... This should tell you something!!

looking at it ,its the windscreen and destination glass,but with the immanent arrival of the cascades they might not bother .it was in the bodyshop over the  weekend but came out untouched.

Is there any reason why the StreetLites don't seem to be used much in service? As in the 2 days I spent in Dundee this week I only ever saw 434 each day in service on the 51. On Tuesday, all the others were parked in the garage and Wednesday, another one was been used for a time as a staff shuttle. All of the Enviro200s were out on various services

Or was it just those days that I saw them?

Yesterday, 431 and 434 were out.

433 had accident damage when I saw it in the depot yesterday and 435 was just sitting at the back of the fence, never saw 432 at all.
