For the WN drivers i was on about. WN drivers only trained on e400 hybrids duno if that means they can drive any e400? But i think Tony said once trained on either e200 or e400 you can drive both

That only applies to the MMCs. They are exactly the same in the cab, minus one screen I think. I would have thought the previous gen differ.

No it doesn't. At BC anyone trained on the standard E400s is allowed to drive the E200s

Which ones have the same cab layout?

Would it be the facelift E400s and all the E200s?

And then the 47**s being different?

E200's and E400's from 4830 onwards have the same dashboard then E200MMC's and E400MMC's are the same

Its only recently changed though because I have drove mk2 400's pretty much every day but when I did a duty on the 70 they had to show me the controls before I could take it out

If it's Mansfield it won't be for scrap. The scrap men use their own trucks
