Another enjoyable video, here showing the two length variations and of course, the locations. In my mind I am trying to visualise the BZL and the Wrightbus GB Kite, now entering service with First in Leeds.

Thanks Guy, Metroline have a 3rd Volvo BZL variation which is 10.3m long, they are the VMS class and are for routes 187 and 487. 23 have been delivered but they are stored at the moment until the electrical infrastructure is complete. The first Wrightbus GB Kites for London have been delivered to Transport UK (formerly Abellio), they are for Richmond local route R70, but have been used on railway replacement service in East London.

@@bobhodgestransportDVDs My daughter and son-in-law live in Brockley and their route, P12, is scheduled to have Enviro200 MMC EVs, which have yet to enter service, presumably because the garage is still awaiting the completion of all infrastructure associated with having electric vehicles. I hope they are running for our next visit.

@@GuyArab I don't think the buses for the P4 (and the P12 which also goes to Brockley) have been delivered yet , so it may be a while before these routes are electrified.

@@bobhodgestransportDVDsAn error on my part there Bob, I meant the P12. Is the P4 even getting electric buses?

Not yet I don't think, the P12 is though, according to one website 'when electric buses become available'.@@GuyArab
