Pete,

Forgot to say, have you excluded the Travel Wisharts fleet for Dundee? As that has no been sold to local management

Think!!! You really need reading a news! See link for more information about Dave Kaye- http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/coventry-news/national-express-west-midlands-bus-3040829

There is nothing in that two year old article to suggest Mr Kaye is in any way a bad or inadequate manager.  I think you have completely misunderstood the article.
Don't you start.

That's Dundee only. Assuming my Dundee fleetlist is correct :) (I have 121 vehicles allocated there)

I'm afraid I'm gonna have to disagree with 121  :P

I currently make it 113 buses at Dundee excluding trainers / staff buses / coaches etc

I suspect some of the vehicles you have allocated to NX Dundee are/were part of the Travel Wisharts fleet and garaged at Dundee only

Vehicles though to have been sold with the Travel Wisharts business are as follows:

299 T299UOX
310 T310UOX
7236 2133PL
7243 S235EWU
7245 PYJ136
7246 A8TPT
7259 NSV621
7260 NSV622
7274 Y823HHE
7305 LVG263
7306 JSU542
7307 5414PH
7309 T307UOX (still taxed but has no seats)
7348 Y824HHE
7349 Y825HHE
7350 K5KFC
7351 M8KFC
7352 H3KFC

Not sure if the above sale list will bring our total allocations for Dundee closer?

I'm down to 118 as I didn't notice 301 was withdrawn and 7123 & 7126 aren't in service yet.

The 118 are made up of 12 Solos, 29 B7RLE, 9 Presidents, 9 Enviro400H, 18 Geminis, 1 B7L, 16 B10L and 24 B10BLE.

Solos (11):

295, 300, 321, 322, 3237, 7241, 7242, 7309, 7323, 7344, 7345

I think 298 may be withdrawn?

B10L (10)

7127-9, 7138, 7144-8 & 7151 - all the rest of that batch are withdrawn following receipt of Presidents

7123 & 7126 are still in Miller St

I agree with all your other totals, so I make it either 111 or 112 dependent on the status of 298

Peter, did you take into consideration BC's lack of 4200, 4201?

One thing Daimler Mercedes Benz are good at is producing excellent Diesel engines, I do miss the sound of the 0405n for all its faults you couldn't knock that 12 litre engine.
