Changeover for 37448, tyre defect. Three in service at the moment; 270, 279 and 283. All four green ones (including 35211) on 81/82 today made for quite the spectacle. |

36279 & 37118 manged to crash into each other on west street yesterday afternoon How have they managed that 37118 hit an E400 which put that out of service, it then came to a halt itself then 36279 overtook a Tram going the other way and wedged itself on 37118. |

Are any final numbers known for how many Streetdecks will come from Leeds this year, or is everything up in the air until the electric needs are known in West Yorkshire? |

I did hear 17 but that was when they were originally planned for Doncaster so who knows. 35285 at Olive also |

What is it about Streetdecks that drivers don't like? Ofcourse their opinion is entirely valid given that they drive them day in, day out, so I'd be curious to hear. As a customer, I find them rather nice buses to ride on.
