RE: Go North West - Metroline1511 - 26/02/2022 21:09
Today I rode Citaro 6223 on route 41. I had to shun a Volvo B9TL and an Enviro400 before the Citaro came.
The 14.15 departure of route 52 from Trafford Centre was cancelled.

Some of the ex-London Volvo B5LH - MCV EvoSetis gave entered service. There are a few pix on Flickr and even one in the new edition of Buses magazine. They seem to have kept Go-Ahead London seating moquette.

Rare working yesterday saw Enviro400 3104 out on 95s which must be the first time in a while that Go Northwest have allocated a decker to 95 although with the service going every 30mins from today Mon-Sat this could end up being a regular occurrence now.
The other working on 95 that I saw was Streetlite 6007.
Despite what's been said about Evocities being mainly for 17/18s not one was allocated to the routes yesterday with them mainly being allocated to 100s yesterday from what I saw while I was out so it does seem this might be the norm on Sundays.

The 95’s are inter worked with the 97/98 now so it will become very normal to see deckers on the 95 in the coming weeks and months.
The evo cities are regularly allocated to the 67/100 infact there was one on the 97/98 yesterday. There was also an Orbits Enviro200 out on 18’s for most of the day.

Having travelled on EvoSeti 3062, I notice that they still retain GA London seating moquette and yellow grabrails. While they have been converted to single-door, no seats have been fitted where the centre door was.
I have seen examples of 09-reg Eclipses refurbished with seating moquette as per route 135 Volvo B9TLs. A handful of other B5TLs have this moquette too.

Think it was last weekend. 4 drivers went down and used Go North east vehicles.

GNW Shared with LAP-HIT euro 5 on my control book. I know I am not allowed to drive non Gal buses. So GNW drivers have to be on GNE policy
