11540 (YR17 RHK) Scania/Higer and 15518 (WLT 987) Mercedes/EVM are shown on Tony's fleet list as allocated to Redditch garage.
Does anyone know what duties these vehicles are used on?

They are used on National Grid Shuttles.

15518 is no longer at Redditch, it was replaced by 15520

15518 is still showing as at Redditch on Rotala's own fleetlist, any idea where it went?

Oh wow, replace perfectly good buses on the 226 with Streetshites, classy 👍🏻

Actually the streetlites are quite nice on the 226, they don't creak and quite nippy

I don't think Tividale have managed a full pvr of Streetlites on the 002 yet & only have enough to cover all 7 workings. Think there's stick still some teething troubles with them.

I believe they started off today with 7, but 1 got replaced. Any ideas what the issues are?

1. They are Streetlites.
2. I believe some of the issues are still electrical related faults

More & more of their new buses are now taken on operating leases inc Strata's which are on year 7 leases.

3 of the new Streetlites broke down on their delivery runs from Wrightbus & didn't make it through Tividale depot gates under their own power.
