Tony said the 47XX aren't leaving WB. And its also been said WN have a 495X on loan for type training for when they recieve theirs?
So it could be that the 47XX will move onto the 5 and 80 and then 4914 - 39 will move to WN?

It could be a rumour but I have heard that the 5 will have Geminis on there.

Any views/comments are my own and do not reflect those of my employer.

im sure wn have loaned e400s in the past, and as drivers are typed on e400h are allowed to drive them. I assumed the e400 at wn was loaned so wb could use 6795 for type training

It was confirmed its at WN for type training.

It's on one of the Cheslyn Hay school runs. It will likely only do peaks M-F as it is also being used for driver type training
And though some of the drivers can drive the E200/E400, not all of the 500 drivers at WN can.

4718-4829 have different dashboard layout to 4830-4984 batch so if 495x is at WN for type tranning it's likely 49xx would transfer over but which ones majority are branded for 5, 74 and 80.

Tony quite a few of the new buses have links to photos of 6967, I am sure that is not what you intended?

Assuming he's done it as a template so when the new photos are uploaded, he can just change the fleet number from the URL link rather than insert a new link manually on each one, if that makes sense.
