Why are 4181/3 at BC? They can't be used on anything because of the emissions.
Thanks for the update on 4289, any idea when it's returning to PB?.

Thanks

Who says they can't be used on anything?

They can be used on the X70 for a start, although that's not what they're for

Euro rules? BC must want a fine for sending them into the City.

Before you become the AQPS police perhaps check what the rules are?

Euro four applies to services with a basic 3 buses per hour. The X70 at 2 buses per hour is alright at Euro 3

As a matter of interest what is the penalty for sending a non-compliant vehicle into the LEZ?

Thanks Tony for a very interesting list, it answers a lot of questions. Two vehicles not mentioned 4192 and 4201. These have been reported as having problems. Have they been withdrawn?

4192 has been donated to Coventry College (not sure if that's City College, Coventry or the 'Coventry College' within Cov Uni). 4201 I assume is just reserve not in use/withdrawn. If you look on Tony's monthly changes 4248 (ex-WB) is also withdrawn.

4201 is dead at WN and won't run again
