Found this on the Allison site; looks as though xFE stands for 'Extra Fuel Economy'

Question: Is the 16 (Birmingham - Hamstead/West Bromwich) the longest rivalry between two operators? ??? - Not only regionally, but nationally?

Would be interesting to hear of any other routes in competition for over 30 years!

Lothian seems to have ordered some B8 EvoRas, though how many I'm not sure!

Noticed 6707 on the 11C at Ward End this afternoon.
Notice the removal of the X12 branding has taken some of the paint off with it leaving white areas/patches on it.

I believe the white patches are the branding vinyl's base layer, as opposed to paint being stripped off.

The same thing happened with 4881 when it had its Kingstanding branding removed, and 6711 with its X10 roundel (albeit to a lesser extent)
