No, there is no plans to Convert the Volvos, or all of the ADLs (converting some creates s[are traction motors and batteries which are the two expensive parts)

Why would you repaint them green when every bus delivered since 2015 has much greener credentials.

They are generally on the Wolverhampton 1 and Birmingham 61/63 but do stray

Makes sense converting a small number to create a pool of spare parts.

Been a few years since I last took any real interest in the bus scene but I have a question or two.

Are the NX hybrids both ADL and Wright still all fully hybrid or have they been converted to standard diesel?

Assuming they are still hybrids, why have they been painted into standard NXWM livery rather than a green variation of it?

And lastly, what routes are they used on these days?
