That fits the description of the bus I saw.

Does anyone know what has happen to these

Yes, still running at the moment. I assume until end of half term? Saw one myself on the shuttle

According to the East Midlands Airport website:

"We have a free pick up or drop off option at our Long Stay car park. This car park is free for up to 60 minutes. Long Stay 2 is a 15 - 20 minute walk or a short shuttle bus journey from the terminal. Please note that the shuttle service won't operate 1 November - 31 March.
Our free shuttle bus operates 24 hours a day, every day. With shuttle buses every 20 minutes, it's a quick journey from the car park to the terminal doors. When returning, the Pick Up zone is just outside of arrivals."

I believe I've spotted one of the newly converted Streetdecks just now, in the depot when I passed on the Skylink.

It has been spotted in Haymarket bus station.
Was intended to go on service 4 this morning, but it's not tracking on there, so as yet am unsure if it's tracking as something else or if it's not actually in service yet (just driver familiarisation)?

Business is good for the BXH5 0705 Coventry (Spon End - Rugby) this morning. Two ADL Enviro400 deckers 33695 & 33696 in convoy. What happened to the electric fleet on this service?

Noticed this for a few weeks as one goes to Haymarket Bus Station and parks up for most of the day.

If bustimes.org is to be believed then 70102 has entered service in Leicester today on service 14

Mayfield

I physically saw it this morning on the 74 so Bustimes is correct
