Talking of TrentBarton and destinations...i think the destination for 'the Comet' is really impressive. Great use of the whole destination to give an outstanding effect.

Have any of the new buses for Brighton arrived yet, the ones are which to be allocated to the 1, 1A, N1 and 28, 29?.

What buses does the 1,1A,N1 and 28 and 29 currently use?

I believe some of Brighton & Hove's new double-decks are due to be delivered next month.

Service 1 is allocated Wright Eclipse Gemini 2 bodied Volvo B9TLs - most of them are 12-plates. Services 28/29 are allocated East Lancs OmniDekka bodied Scania N270UDs - these are 57-plates.

I understand 03 and 04 plate East Lancs OmniDekka bodied Scania N94UDs are expected to be cascaded as a result. Would expect these to be the examples route-branded for services 48 (628-633) and 50 (601-03/05) as well as the other examples in the YN04 Gxx series batch.

Thanks for the info.

Go North East will probables get some of these OmniDekka's to replace the remaining none DDA double deckers in the fleet.

Just six "Regency" branded Scania N94UD/East Lancs OmniDekkas remain: 679 - 684. These should be cascaded to other routes, to replace older examples of the same vehicle type.
