Interestingly, Tranche 576, which includes the 5, 15 and 115 which should have been awarded in December is still awaited?
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

Bits of others are also due. Which can only lead me to assume that they're all being held by the current operators.
Don't judge me until you've walked in my size ten shoes.

Very interesting changes. I believe that is the first time a batch of Borismasters have changed operators and I personally am very happy to see the 18 getting new buses. Hopefully a type not already seen at Euston

Quite sensational news and a massive blow for Stagecoach London,who might have to close a garage in light of this and other losses. And yes,it's the first route run with Borismasters to change operators-the 159,when Arriva lost it to Abellio,was converted to Borismasters on the change of operator. Better news for London United in gaining the 18/N18 from Metroline and as for Metroline themselves good news on their retention of the 6 & 98 at Willesden.
