I knew there was a size difference between the 2. Always thought the B7s were taller ::)
Class 153, 155 and 156. The Super Sprinters
Local Routes: 21, 89, 48/A, 12/A, 54/A

Out of all these fantastic double deckers we have, which do we have the most ?! I.e. do we have more Emviro 400s than Tridents and so on ...

Check out the fleet list part of this site, you'll be able to do the calculations very easily from there.  I worked them out once a couple of years ago in a few minutes, when I was finding it especially hard to sleep. 

Based on more recent deliveries, and from memory, I reckon ALX400 Tridents 41XX, 43XX, 44XX, 45XX, 46XX are the most commonplace, then the various Enviro generation 47XX, 48XX, 49XX (two sorts if I'm correct), the Eclipses 45XX, 46XX, 47XX, ALX Volvos 42XX, 44XX and Presidents 40XX, the growing fleet of 61XX MMC Enviros now outnumber the fading 40XX Spectras, and last up, PB's half dozen 47XX Omnis.  I've generalised massively here and ignored batch-creep and prototypes. 


EDIT:  I forgot the greeeen buses, 30 and 18 of each type.

By my reckoning, before withdrawals and based on memory and a fag-packet:
Dennis/ Transbus Trident ALX400 - 360
Transbus Enviro 400/ E40 - 166
B7TL Eclipse - 138
B7TL ALX400 - 110
B7TL President - 102
Enviro 400 Trident - 90
MMC Enviro - 48
E400 Hybrid? - 30
Spectra - 22
Volvo Hybrid? - 18
Scania Omnidecker - 6
Don't you start.

I was attempting to save myself from all that ! I've always gather Tridents/ ALX400s are the most populous buses we have, it's a shame we don't have more OmniCity's
