YJ12 MZL was an emergency working due to a mechanical failure with YX60 EOR. Both SK24’s had their monthly maintenance inspections this week so a replacement was required.

The new contract will be operated by brand new Mellor Strata Ultras.

YJ14 BPK will be converted to service bus specification and will be the spare bus.

X1 Mellor will be picked up in the coming weeks whilst X2 will be made to order.

SK24 CUA and SK24 CTY will see us through until the X2 brand new ones are delivered and in use.

I notice there's a 24 reg Mellor Strata that's been tracking on the route as the third bus recently.

Out of interest, what's going to happen to the MMCs? It won't be the first time fairly new MMCs leave the route, after that happened when Little Gem introduced brand new MMCs and then moved them to the 44 route. In fact it'll be the fourth time since COVID brand new vehicles get introduced on the 391!
