 Does the allocation of fleet number 26 to OP07ARE  mean Johnsons are keeping the vehicle as opposed to it being on loan ? ?

On the tracker johnsons now had fleet numbers

Johnsons do not have fleet numbers.

[samuel derrington]

@Pat they do now

[Tony]

@Pat they do now

No, they have ticket machine allocated numbers

[samuel derrington]

@Tony I know the boss at johnsons and he told me himself this morning they are fleet numbers which may be applied to the buses eventually but just for the ticket machines for now

[cris 99]

I don't really see why though.  Johnsons have never had fleet numbers, and I can't see what difference they're going to make now.

Fleetnumbers are a big advantage for a number of reasons for both drivers and enthusiasts

Fleet numbers are only really useful for companies with a large number of vehicles.  For smaller companies, often the last three characters of the registration are used when referring to a vehicle, such as what Johnsons currently do.
