I'd of taken a picture, under the seats for a start. The point is it was quick but not nice. Used public transport in London central line which is old and the 140 Hayes bus and was no wY as bad as yesterday's experience.

Really? London's buses and trains are in a far worse state than West Midlands with window etching far more common along with many vehicles, both bus and rail with very poor appearance

Traversing the 16 today; been up and down a few times and I have to say, it's quite a mixed bag at the moment - as could be expected. Along with 6994 & 6995 are the standard Trident E400 & Gemini mix, along with two Omnilinks!

I've been for a ride on both 7000 and 7500 today; very nice indeed.

No 'next stop' announcements as yet and wondered if there is a 'go live' date?

Also, I couldn't get the Wi-Fi to work - but that may be just me....

6818 is on the 16 - Is this the first time a 66 plate has appeared since it's received its upgrade?

Finally got to ride one of the newbies today, 7000. Looks so much smarter with the posters inside and the branding. Much better than the half-arsed ones on the 23/24 and X20/X21/X22.
Local Routes: 002, 39/39A, X21, 46, 76.
Localish Routes: 18, 23, X22.
