Usual bustimes disclaimer but several more E400EV's are tracking including 80552/4-6, which by my records only leaves 9 to enter service, not including ones we know are out but not tracking....
Those 9 are as follows.... 80516/80528/80535/80545/80548/80551/80553/80557/80558

47922 was noted on the Maghull Circulars this morning.

80528, 80548 and 80557 sighted out today.....
Also, had a quick look at Gillmoss and one of the E400MMC's (beachball livery, presume one of the departing 108**) was hooked up to a recovery truck....couldn't see which one though.
80545, 80553 & 80558 (SN26XZC/XZL/XZS) are now the only 3 not showing as taxed yet......
It seems all the ex Peoplesbus vehicles are being disposed of only the 2 MMCs look like they are staying at Chester can’t see 36589 staying long term ether.
From what I have seen on Bustimes.org it seems that routes 14/14a are retaining Enviro400-MMCs for now.
I expect these routes to go electric when the GM share of route 10a moves to St Helens under franchising.
I haven't seen what will happen to joint operations on routes 14/a, 53, 82/a and 86/a ahead of franchising.
Stagecoach/GNW/Bee 13161 has apparently arrived at GM, is this for training RF drivers I wonder?

14/53/82/86 will operate just as now until franchising in the Liverpool area happens in 2027

I realise they will not change in September/October. It will be interesting to see where these are allocated, and/or whether other routes will also be reallocated.
