5410 broke down again, as well as 5411 (I think) both needed a tow, both with coolant light on in cab. It was 5410s first day back in service after its first breakdown, ironic thing is Volvos are already proving to be more reliable!

I believe Stagecoach Yorkshire are also having problems with their latest batch for the 120 in Sheffield, such that Manchester are loaning Diesel E400's to cover the Hybrids going back to ADL for modifications

I wonder if its a faulty part, usually ADL are quite good engine wise etc?

Another reason to vote Volvo! Its hybrid system just seems simpler to me, something added on opposed to an integral part of the engine and transmission like the Enviro

I've been told the E400's still not in service have not had scanners/ticket machines fitted etc yet. There are a few parked up down the bottom of the yard. 5415 has not been branded/has no leaves or nothing on it and hasn't even got a fleet number on it so for those who 'have not seen it yet' that's probably why!!

Well WN garage have arranged a visit for me to look around the garage (With my mom for safety reason) on saturday so i will get to see the other E400H in the garage.

Will 5415 be branded?

Aren't 5410 - 5419 getting 1 branding, with 5420 and 5421 going without 1 branding?

Think lately, plans change every day, so who knows.

Personally think the 1 branding is really nice and as many vehicles should have it as possible.

Anyone who knows me knows that I'm not one for route branding and if I was in charge of it I wouldn't route brand any vehicles at all. It only causes confusion when they get placed on the wrong route (e.g when 6-branded 2077 was on the 5 last Sunday, the 5 and 6 stands are next to each other in Wolverhampton Bus Station!)

I definetly saw a photo of 5419 with branding!

[4006]

5418/9/20 are definately branded!!!
