I remember when 2201 - 30 were 1949 - 50 Park Royal bodied Leyland PD2s. Now that should make you feel really young!
2222 still exists. A friend of mine owns it.

For the old timers amongst us this is like déjà vu back to the days when the Rolls Royce engined Metrobuses 2226 to 2245 were delivered new to AG. Although I doubt I'll look back on these ugly lopsided looking MMCs with the same fondness.
Yes I agree about the metrobuses as I was a child when the mk1's then the mk2's were delivered but I myself could grow to like the new MMC's over time @Mike K

I think they'll arrive slowly over the next few weeks.

Talks of the 11 receiving branding with various designs complete. I haven't seen these designs so whether it's in Crimson or standard, I have no idea.

Wonder if they will bring back the branding with a big circle on the one side of the bus

Like this one of 4635 (bottom pic that tonys took)

I liked that branding as it fitted with the whole Outer "Circle" idea.

Are there enough done for the 11 though. I am sure at one point @Tony  said the lot would be done some are looking a mess. @BU07 LGO  Maybe they will do the others after the Xplore Dundee Volvo B7RLE are done then?
