Not remotely relevant but 4475-4516 will always be PB buses in my eyes, and 4517-4534 / 4635-4679 belonging to AG lol.

But yeah, 4507 is at AG. Has it still got it's LED display? I remember back in 2015 it received the latest Hanover USB interface thing, same as 2201-2250 & onwards.

So 3 E200s have been replaced by 3 StreetLites, so exactly the same as before

You'll see next week as 435 is now VOR for MOT.

1806, 1807 AG-PB
Two more single deckers, I make that 68, it's too many. PB do the (estimated PVR) 8A/C (16), 28 (15), 66 (7), 71(7) and 96 (5). I make that 50, even if you include the 52 that would make no more than 57, even with spares that is far too many. I know operating a fleet with a large amount of single deckers isn't easy during this pandemic BUT some double decker routes with have overcrowding issues making social distancing very difficult. If (it's only if) the West Midlands moves into tier two from the 16th December this problem will get worse.

Yes, your being an expert without knowing the facts again. These two are there so that PB can have 6 Scanias at Graysons for Euro 6 conversion at a time not 4. AG Scanias are now all Euro 6 hence them being able to lose them as their programme has just finished
