Withdrawn Vehicles

[Jack]

From day 1, right...

2004 they had new Gemini.
2006/7 brand new B7RLE's.
2010 brand new Omnilinks.
2012 brand new B7RLE's.
2015 new MMC's (followed by 18 month old ones in 2016).

Let's not forget they also had new Presidents as well. 

A lot of AG's cascades the last few years have been around 3-5 year olds. You're the one who's clearly not blind to see this, AG have had it nicely compared to other garages. They have a fairly young fleet age as well. Still can't be pleased can you...

I GIVE UP !!
i meant from NEW DAY 1, not a year old , not 3 years old etc.
AG has had less Brand New vehicles than anywhere !!

NEW means NEW not ones that are over a year old, 3 years old, or just NEW to AG opinions vary, this is mine.
can somebody close this thread now please

And in the last 15 years AG has had over 100 new buses, so hardly missing out.
(Scanias / B7RLEs / E200MMCs)

The reality is that anyone can make the same argument about any other NX garage.

All garages receive new buses at some point, all garages lose vehicles when they are reallocated elsewhere, and all garages eventually end up with 'cast-offs' from elsewhere.

And no, I'm not going to close this thread on your insistence, but I will respectfully ask that it gets back 'on-topic' very quickly, and sticks to the subject of vehicles being withdrawn.

[Jay71]

I wonder which garage has had the least new buses over the past fifteen years

[Tony]

While I have been at Glastonbury PB have withdrawn 1902

[WA4317]

Already withdrawn 4630, has been collected for scrap by PVS

Saw Another 2 x 09 plate E400's heading South on the M5 between junction 1-2 this morning approx 9.30am, assume with Go South Coast drivers at the wheel

[Wba_lad]

ADL but E400 EV's with ADL's own EV chassis instead of a BYD chassis.

There are also 130 x Wright Electroliners on order for the end of this year

130 wright electroliners on order for NX?

[EK40]

130 wright electroliners on order for NX?

yes, the order for the electric buses was split between wright and ADL (makes for some variety at least)

Ah I see, that's good then at least there is a big of mix, can't wait to see them, when are they ment to be delivered. 

[winston]

No, 11 still there, at least 9 are leaving next week

The very first Gemini, 4475, has been withdrawn today due to gearbox failure.
