It looks like the new Enviros are going to stick to the Sutton Lines as well as the 907, 115/914, as I thought they would ;D

And 4855 was on the 907/914 Sunday, so it looks like the 907, 115/914 will predominantly E400 now

You only have to look at the photos on the main site to see what the names of the last 6 are

Sorry Nathan that's my fault!  :P When I first saw 4939 parked at Walsall, for some strange reason, I only put down 'Andrea' in my phones notepad, and I only called it 'Andrea' when I put them on the forum. It is actually 'Andrea Elizabeth'

Listened to a PB Driver bitchfest outside Aston Uni as they were changing drivers yesterday. They are not happy. Apparently the new E400's are substantially slower and less powerful than the ones they've lost. A couple have already run out of AdBlue resulting in them going no faster than 25mph. Apparently one of these incidents was on the Expressway.

I can see their point, was on the 957 yesterday, driver was hurrying passengers on as he was running late and was trying to catch up time but it just wasn't having it, but they might settle in a bit soon though as the same was said about the new B7s
