It is yes!

FCEV is an acronym for Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle

Light up, light up as if you have a choice,
Even if you cannot hear my voice.
I'll be right beside you dear.

I wonder if the Gillmoss hydrogen buses will be more reliable than the St Helens one’s.

I'm not too sure what you mean. The batch of twenty for the 10A are identical having been built at the same time in the same factory. Afaik, the only discernible difference will be the legal lettering and fleet numbering.

Apart from a few trial runs to promote Eurovision none have officially entered service yet. When they do enter service I fully expect the Arriva and Stagecoach ones to be launched on the same day rather than in a piecemeal way. Of course, I may be wrong.

I wouldn't get excited. You won't be seeing them for at least a few months.

They're utter rubbish, to be honest. Monumental waste of money.

If anyone is after 19400 it's been on the 17's this morning, it started tracking on bustimes late last week on 20/21's but again don't know how accurate that was.

Not a criticism noticed it still has Stagecoach Manchester legals on it and on the whole not too bad for a 14/15 odd year old bus too.
