The 'A' before the fleet number reminds me of when WMPTE took-over the municipal fleets in the late 60s/early 70s. Prefixed rather than a suffix this time.

A stands for Accessible, and every vehicle is renumbered, not just having an A stuck in front of the old number

Yes, 1001 is in the new livery, but is being kept under wraps until the launch

Why have the ex ATG Solo and E200 been allocated fleetnumbers, 323 - 327 and 729 - 730?
Do NX have any plans to use them at some point?
They'd probably be more suitably sized vehicles for the 10/10H and 36, than what is currently used.
Local Routes
94/95, 11A/11C, 28.

They're a long way off meeting National Express standards so won't be used for a long time if at all

It's been inspected at Miller Street, along with YJ10 EYR which may become 327, to see if it is worth purchasing to add to the NXWM training fleet. At the moment those are still owned by the Administrators of ATG

You've got them all down as already acquired with the July NXWM changes:

323; 324; 325; 326; 327; 729; 730; 800; 1744 aquired with the assetts of ATG. Not in use

They are on NX premises, and as you can see I am able to move them around, by the two being at Miller Street, but they are not formally purchased yet
