B7TLs on the 16s are still regular (the same with the 7). As already stated, we don't have enough MK1 Enviro400s for all three routes, plus the couple on the 33 at the minute. You don't get many Volvos on the 101 anymore

I've always thought that 4733-7 could transfer back to us and get repainted/ticket branding so there would defiantly be enough for the 7, 16 and 101

I thought the PVR for all 3 routes was 26, with 30 '09 Enviros. Please excuse inaccuracies, I don't pay that much attention

The 3 unbranded ones appear to be regular cover on the 33 whilst their native 61 plate E400's are being given Crimson treatment

4799, 4800 and 4829 have been put on the 33 quite often recently to allow passengers to get used to the new livery.

Why on earth would they need to get used to the new livery?

Ahh, that makes sense. I'm guessing extra buses are needed for peak times also (on the 7/16/101)

I dunno. But that's the reason I was given for them being on the 33.

Easy, they're on there because the E40Ds are being painted so they are sticking the bus 2nd in line (Providing it is available)

The Gemini's are the second type for the 33.
