Thanks

The longest absentee from service, 6875 has just passed an MoT and is now available for service. It's not allocated to be out this afternoon, but may still go out, It also has a GPS problem with the tracker so may not track properly. I won't know until it is actually in service.

What got it in gear?

Is 6867 back in service soon also?

[Tony]

6875 has come out in service for the first time in two years this afternoon.

It should do the 16:25; 18:35 & 20:25 X22s from city, not sure if it will track properly yet.

Before anyone says it did a 24 this morning (see Bustimes) it didn't, that was just the engineers checking a ticket machine they had just put on worked

What was the problem with it to keep it out of service for so long

It wouldn't go in gear

It wouldn't go in gear

It also had an RTC iirc back in June 2022 and then a load of other issues.

What rota is the 97 on?
