I agree, enough of the bickering and personal attacks, it ends here.

Now, back on topic please.

I've only heard about the 300 new buses not sure where their going. In my opinion I think there's defiantly more E400EVS coming, I may be wrong though...

Ooh let the speculation commence! :azn:

From the fleet number I'll guess this is another single deck demonstrator vehicle, possibly either a Wrightbus Kite Electroliner, or maybe an ADL Enviro100EV?

I suppose any EV demonstrator would be used at YW or CV again.

Then again there is the possibility of trialling a Wrightbus Kite Hydroliner at WA?

Could be a yutong since those are getting quite popular (and from what ive heard they are quite good buses)
