Pity if the 400's are not MMC. ADL offloading 'old' models unwanted by other operators on NXWM or NX going for the cheaper model whilst it's still available?

ADL aren't offloading 'old' models as they are all made to order! 

Operators which will be taking E400 MMC this year only seem to be taking smaller quantities, so I don't think this type will enter full production until end of 2014/early 2015

The April 27th 654 timetable shows WB as the garage for lost property not PB. Is this a mistake, or will the 645 transfer to WB, when they receive the new short Enviro 200's?

Ok I've definitely missed something here (been away from the forum for a few months) Short E200s? Makes sence to replace the darts and solos, but don't recall seeing any mention of it on here?
Now in exile in Oxfordshire....

Yup short E200s. Sorry everyone else for repeating what must have been mentioned before, but the NX order is for both short (mini) and midi type E200s and the E400 double decks.

I'm not sure if I'm correct here but I'm sure I read somewhere that the MMC Enviro400 will be produced exclusively at Scarborough. Perhaps the initial 2014 orders including this 20 for NXWM are being produced in Falkirk as Scarborough may need time to adjust to producing the MMC version? After all, the prototype MMCs were made in Falkirk.

The first batch of E400's for NXWM are the old version.

One thing Daimler Mercedes Benz are good at is producing excellent Diesel engines, I do miss the sound of the 0405n for all its faults you couldn't knock that 12 litre engine.

With it being a figure of 20, sounds like it going to be a singular route as would not be enough to cover a corridor i.e 45/47 or 61/62/63.
Someone mentioned the 74 but would they convert the 74 and not the 75.

So maybe could be e.g 16 or 126 bla bla bla.

YW for the 50?

Liberator9

Don't think there are enough for the 50; there are 25 57 reg Enviro 400s which were ordered for and still are used for the 50. Although YW does deserve some new double decks soon - next year perhaps?

Ah that's alright John, I was just thinking PB Already have plenty of Euro 5 Enviro 400 so wouldn't be difficult for them to have more but the PVR probably isn't high enough for 20.

No reason why they couldn't be split between more than one garage, like the 13 plates

Isn't there supposed to be 10 Y tridents heading to dundee for school contracts only WA,BC,CV,PN have any, PN & CV i doubt will lose any so BC,WA most probable location for E400 suggested YW because tridents could move from there to replace any BC or WA Y reg tridents that  may go to dundee?
