Vehicle Transfers

[paulb1973]

From my own notes - I have this as the Wolverhampton allocation (assuming those 41xx Tridents are still there) :

18 E200 (751-53; 810-11/45-54/61-63)
55 B7RLE (2001-29/59-80; 2120-23)
83 Trident (4132-37/39-40/43/45-46/49-53/60/62-63/68/70; 4310-25/45; 4535-64/78-92)
21 E400H (5401-21)
37 E400MMC (6759-95)

As stated by Tony earlier 5409 is officially off the allocation at present

[BN]

Converted engine I believe? All the hybrids are going to have it

Are they? News to me!

[BN]

will wn get 5409 back?

Eventually yes, it is having a trial full diesel conversion.

[Kevin]

Eventually yes, it is having a trial full diesel conversion.

Huzzah finally someone confirms it

[Tony]

Huzzah finally someone confirms it

It's only in the last couple of weeks it's been confirmed. It was undecided whether to redo it as a Hybrid initially

[BK63 YWP]

Redo as a smart hybrid? Will 5409 have any body work changed when the battery is removed?

[Trident4590]

Eventually yes, it is having a trial full diesel conversion.

Interesting

[2900]

I have read about reading buses ADL hybrids under going various types of conversions, the full diesel conversion re,uses the same 4 cylinder cummins engine which powered the generator which is also fitted to the enviro 200 , surely not it would be well underpowered.
Another has vantage power setup.

This might have not been mentioned, unless I have missed it - 4265 is at AG, it was on the 72 today. Perhaps a transfer, or another loan? Are there any other transfers happened over Christmas? Worth a shot asking in case they haven't been reported yet. Thanks.

With regards to the recent transfers - I attempt to update my own notes each time there is a transfer/withdrawal etc. I currently have the NXWM fleet allocation as this:

Is this broadly correct? - any updates would be welcome (I'm aware 5409 may not currently be on strength at WN and few more CV Bendi's may have gone). I normally exclude loans but have included garage reserves 4129(CV), 4130(YW) & 4185(PN).

[BN]

4170 is withdrawn at WN
4188 is withdrawn at MS
9959 is withdrawn at WN

Thanks. I assume 2151 is a dead-cert BC to CV move at some point, possibly a few more too in the same direction.
