When comparing B5LH to Enviro 400 Hybrids, which carries more passengers?
Enviro 400: 45+32 = 77 seats
B5LH: 41+27 =  68 seats

How many standing passengers can be carried (legally) ?
How many wheelchair users can be carried?

The E400H definatley have more capacity. On the 59 route you a B5 fills up quicker than say the tridents and Spectras.

unless NX are going to pay full price for hybrid buses next year I can't see them getting any as they haven't got anything from the green bus fund https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/203081/green-bus-winning-bids.pdf

I made that mistake, that is only a part announcement of funding allocations. The full Green Bus Fund 4 was worth £20 Million, this announcement allocates £11.65 Million only.

NX may still be in with a chance of receiving some funding

Broken down? 5413 has already done the 59 and now the 529!

Yeah the little transit connect was at the side of it when i left the station

Presumably 5413 had just finished for the day on the 1 and was near the station so they quickly replaced 4597 with 5413.

First E400H on the 529 to date!
