Do you think they will order any scania engined e400s?

As the deal is exclusive Alexander Dennis it will not include any Scania Chassis

Stevo

There's no such thing as a Scania-engined E400. What Stagecoach has is the ADL E400 body on the Scania chassis, quite different from the ADL chassis. The strange thing is that Scania is to use the Cummins engine for Euro6, so there won't be so much difference, although I think the Scania ride is better.

I think I'm right in saying the E200 comes in a long version for around 41 seats - as this is so close to a 12m E300 which is around a 43 - 44 seater perhaps there is no need for E300s.
Longest E200 seats 39,E300s seem to range from 41-45 Seating

Stevo

Looking at the ADL website (which I should have done before posting) the euro 5 E200 comes in an 11.3m version which should seat over 40, but the Euro 6 only goes up to 10.8m which would be 37 - 39 seats.

If scania are to use cummins euro 6 engines in there chassis then why bother  ordering it when adl own in house chassis will have it any way plus it will have zf axles on the e400 mmc should give a far better ride.

The reason no-one guessed where 4940 upwards are going correctly is you all presumed they were all going to the same garage.
4940~4949 BC
4950~4982 WB

Potentially come September west brom won't have any full size single decker bus that will be weird. Not 100% if this going to be the case.

Class 153, 155 and 156. The Super Sprinters
"Around the corner" routes: 21, 89
Local routes: 12/A, 48/A
Semi-local routes: 54, 80, 87

Either the 59,60 or 24 would make sense. Is the 24 currently single deck operated? Because if it was couldn't these new Enviro 400s displace some Wright Eclipse Urbans which could then be sent to AG, to release some Scanias to YW, to therefore replace the Liberators there? Just an idea.

They are for the 24.

That's because they are for Soho Rd


With 53 buses going to WB there are still 10 buses outstanding. 10 LWB E200's maybe?
