Yes went out in service on a morning peak board. Possibly on the 60 this afternoon (no promises)

It's been out on the Harbornes during the day. It's just going back to garage.

There was an Electric E400 City in London livery on trade plates driving around the city centre this afternoon (Carrs Lane, Dale End, Albert Street and Moor Street).
Have NX borrowed one to try out?

If so, I wonder if that was what @Tony was alluding to ???

There's another demonstrator due very soon which will be running as an extra along a route as a trial, but won't be fitted out to carry normal passengers (Ticket machine etc). Enthusiasts may be allowed to travel on it for a donation to charity.

It was on Streetsbrook Road in Solihull this afternoon with something along the lines of 'Electric Bus Training' on the destination display. Type training for the forthcoming arrival of the new buses for the 6?

A London liveried AD Enviro 400 EV City is currently parked on the Stratford Road just south of Robin Hood Island. On trade plates, not sure if this was at the NEC show a week or so ago?
On loan to NXWM being tested on the 6 route ready for when the new ones arrive. (No passengers)

Oops, sorry, missed that!

So is this the demonstrator that we might be allowed on for a donation?

That was going to be an idea, but not staying long enough now. Tomorrow will probably be its last day

4797 is on the 23 this morning and is my haulage to work. Very smart light and airy interior, the skylights really make a difference.
