Since I posted this 4778 and 4779 have returned from Graysons, now Euro 6, 4780 has gone to Graysons, and 1808 has gone into paint
I assume 2064 has been in the wars then......

They are not there for school services as you very well know as you have seen my Facebook posts about them, and BY is still Head Office hence why that address is on the side of every vehicle you saw when you were out riding around
Is 4771 a full repaint (this one is already in the two-tone blue) or just a tidy-up etc.

Hi Tony, I've noticed things seem to have come to an apparent standstill on the paint shop front - is that lockdown related or something else?
Interesting that some of the vehicles at Graysons sometimes show up on the Bustimes.org website map.

The lift in the spray booth is broken, so at the moment they can only do accident repairs as they are generally in the lower part where the painters can reach without the lift.
There is currently 9 buses in the queue fully refurbished, just waiting for a coat of paint

Graysons do the regular servicing on all the Euro6 exhaust systems, so every Euro 6 older than 2015 will be visitors there.

It is ready for service, it was out at the pride event last Sunday, and should be again next weekend. That's the reason it's at Coventry

will 5403/5 be converted with their existing engines like 5402/12 or will it receive the bigger lump that 5409 had.

Yes, returned from Graysons and swapped for 5421 to have its exhaust service

i just saw 1796 on 1
It still seems to be tracking on the 1 - could the bus in paint possibly be 1795?

Tony, on 9th Sep you said
Quote from: Tony on September 09, 2021, 02:48:05 PMThe last Hybrid, 5421, returned from Euro 6 conversion today.
20 days have now passed, 5421 has been in service, now you mention the bus has gone to Grayson for exhaust service.
The UK Gov Clean Air Zone Vehicle Checker, states this bus is not registered as Euro 6 compliant.
Was 5421 Euro 6 compliant on 9th Sept, when returned back to PL?
Is the UK Gov CAZ Vehicle Checker incorrect?
In the WA Garage board you listed the NX Buses that have been upgraded to Euro 6 emission standards, which included the following Enviro 400 Hybrid:

Thanks Tony.
In regards to allocating buses to Garages, in order to meet AQPS emission compliance targets, where operators must ensure a percentage of their journeys are operated using vehicles with Euro 6 compliant (or better) exhaust systems.
Given...
Solihull AQPS = 100% journeys to be Euro 6 compliant.
Wolverhampton AQPS = 75% Journeys to be Euro 6 compliant.
What is the definition of "an AQPS journey"?
Is it...
(A) Each scheduled Trip working IN/OUT/VIA the AQPS Zone?
Or
(B) Each scheduled journey IN/OUT/VIA the AQPS zone, where a journey is the furthest possible paying a single fare?
Most services operate as single Trip workings in one direction - outbound / inbound - so there is no difference between (A) and (B). But there is, when considering out-and-back-loops like N32,N33,N59, which while operated as single Trip Working, are TWO passenger journeys, given the Trip can not be completed paying a single fare. N59 requires a single fare from w-ton to Ashmore Park, and another single fare from Ashmore Park to w-ton.
With Wolverhampton Bus Station located within the AQPS Zone...
What is the N59 "AQPS Journey" contribution per day (mon-fri)?
(A) = 145 Trip workings ?
OR
(B) = 280 Single Fare Journeys INTO/OUT-OF the AQPS Zone?

Thanks Tony - does the same apply to the other type of EYMS conversions (4 cyl) or has that been sorted for them?

5402 & 5412 also need purpose built exhausts.
5403 & 5405 had the new exhausts before going to EYMS, and they are trying to work around them
Thanks Tony.

BusTimes shows both at Graysons for the last week or so. Perhaps the ticketer units have been removed so they can be secretly driven around on test? ;D
