All are in service apart from 5425 (stand to be corrected but it should be nearly ready to enter service)

Don't tell me @Tony they have actually got it to work?
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

Yes @Winston , but hasn't it been away for around 2 or 3 years, not exactly a quick conversion!

Yes at PCS & they've done nothing with it. At EYMS normal turnaround applies as per 5402 etc!

PCS did manage to fit a 6 cylinder engine (not euro 6) during its time at Wootton Bassett along with removing the hybrid bits. You cannot fit a euro 6 engine in a standard E400, that is why MMCs have those extended rear ends to fit the larger Euro 6 engine. It was towed to EYMS about a month ago, they reckon 4-6 weeks to obtain all the parts required to finish the conversion, then around 2 weeks labour.

It is different to all the others because of the 6cyl engine. All other conversions for all operators done by EYMS have retained the original 4cyl engine. This means fitting the ZF gearbox is going to be very tight and the bus should be more powerful than 5402/5412. It will then have a trap fitted at Graysons to make it euro 6
