[slate minnow]

Ragebait so poor

[brazen temple]

AHHHHH

AHHHHH

[frozen edge]

Acc why would they put a diesel blindset on a hybrid bus

[fossil herald]

I fixed it dw

[slate minnow]

BX dont even bother putting anything btw

[deep kestrel]

good good

[deep kestrel]

because every BX bus has a working blind set?

when was the last time BX had bandits 😭😭

[sterile pier]

mate

[fossil herald]

BTW

[sterile pier]

SOME BX BUSES DONT EVEN HAVE BLIND UNITS

[fossil herald]

The engineer who made those number blinds

[slate minnow]

because its all they had clearly

[sterile pier]

exxample wvl464

[slate minnow]

Ysn

[brazen temple]

poll is up

[fossil herald]

He got sacked twice for tyre exploding

[frozen edge]

????

[slate minnow]

[deep kestrel]

difference is MG had no set

like at ALL

[slate minnow]

huh

[deep kestrel]

a 51 i saw had two black papers on the front too with orpington and 51 wrote on it

so it’s not just the back

how don’t you have a FRONT set

[frozen edge]

I still remember when 180s were like that

[brazen temple]

😂

[frozen edge]

Back in the day

[sterile pier]

lack of availability for blinds

[brazen temple]

what a garage man

[deep kestrel]

awh poor you

[silent bluff]

Let’s be real

[slate minnow]

Today, Abnormal finds out that blindsets don’t come instantly when ordered.

[sterile pier]

id love to see some of these guys run a company

[slow bone]

This one?

[silent bluff]

It’s not as bad as DT using chalk for side blinds

[deep kestrel]

we would succeed

[sterile pier]

LOOL

[deep kestrel]

nah it was like that but even the main dest had paper

[sterile pier]

bro dont even get me started on DT buses in 2020 bro

[deep kestrel]

like not even orpington station

[sterile pier]

abnormal should not be chatting

[slate minnow]

and GAL isn’t?😭

[frozen edge]

BX are better cos all their buses are blinded for all their routes they can do

[thick swift]

MG clears DT bruv

[slate minnow]

Which bus at MG isn’t

[frozen edge]

Buses with old sets have the newer routes soo

[slate minnow]

😭😭😭😭

[thick swift]

And BX clears MG

[sterile pier]

he cant answer

[frozen edge]

Roig48

[sterile pier]

thats gonna get reblinded

lol

[deep kestrel]

shut up enviri man

[slate minnow]

^

[frozen edge]

Its been 11 months

[sterile pier]

there wasnt any reason to since it was allocated to 51

[sterile pier]

^

[frozen edge]

So

[silent bluff]

Eeeyenfourtyeightttt

[sterile pier]

holy shit

please shutup

[slate minnow]

Then again some sn11s were

[frozen edge]

YX61s are allocated 89 but still do 401

[sterile pier]

ur pissing me off now

icl

[brazen temple]

has it even done another route

[silent bluff]

188

[slate minnow]

yes 291

[brazen temple]

oh wait schools

[silent bluff]

Only

[brazen temple]

and that

[silent bluff]

Oh yh 291 too

[sterile pier]

not a priority tho

hence why not all have been done

[frozen edge]

Yes exactly

[deep kestrel]

💀💀

[frozen edge]

u see BX

[silent bluff]

It only did 188 cos the inserts have been on it since it was at abellio

[brazen temple]

some WVLs got done too

[silent bluff]

And because of Morgan’s friends

[slate minnow]

doesnt matter either way now they’re all gonna be reblinded

[frozen edge]

BX are just better at doing shit

They are quicker

[deep kestrel]

yes

[sterile pier]

yeah because they needed spares

[brazen temple]

wtf how are the votes close

naa

[frozen edge]

All their buses have up to date blinds

[frozen edge]

From jan

[slate minnow]

cus ppl arent gonna vote no cuz everyone else is

😭😭😭

[deep kestrel]

when BX took over 99/269/401 there was no issue with blinds or buses looking awful

[frozen edge]

Exactly

[slate minnow]

>E209

[frozen edge]

All their existing buses were blinded

[sterile pier]

well they obviously need flexibility??

[deep kestrel]

yeah but that’s because a driver crashed it tbf

😭

[slate minnow]

So?

[frozen edge]

and MG didn’t do that so

[silent bluff]

This argument is jokes

[deep kestrel]

so my point is it wasn’t crashed at BX?

[sterile pier]

because they didnt NEED to

[frozen edge]

Whats wrong with E209

[deep kestrel]

bo

bro

[slate minnow]

“buses looking awful”

why u talking about crashes now

[deep kestrel]

because it looks awful due to a crash

[frozen edge]

BX did so

[deep kestrel]

are you spasticated

[slate minnow]

still awful

U prick

[sterile pier]

[deep kestrel]

[frozen edge]

I think it was 209 but idk

[silent bluff]

[sterile pier]

[silent bluff]

Archie I didn’t ask you

[fossil herald]

MG didn't bother stopping them bus, just let it carry on

[sterile pier]

[fossil herald]

Great wall of china

it’s MGs fault

[silent bluff]

Hear me out

[frozen edge]

E209 was worn in 2023

[silent bluff]

MG or NP

[winter needle]

NP

[frozen edge]

MG

[fossil herald]

It is their fault, they're literallt paying for the repairs and labours

[brazen temple]

🌚

[ripe wing]

NP is on the falloff now icl so

[fossil herald]

NP broke all the buses

[ripe wing]

MG

[versed jasper]

MG

[silent bluff]

L

[brazen temple]

EHVs > MG

[fossil herald]

They're paying the repairs for negligence of the buses

[sterile pier]

😭 😭

[lofty jolt]

MG over NP is wicked

[winter needle]

that’s not possible unless them buses were there for a while

i would get it if the buses were misfiring

nd that stuff

[elder barn]

😭😭😭😭😭

[lofty jolt]

Go ahead in north would be non existent if it wasn’t for NP

[winter needle]

nd they weren’t doing anything

[fossil herald]

I'm serious, when I broke EN46s gearbox, they done a shit repair lol @lofty jolt

[silent bluff]

If it was 2020 I’d say they are on par tbh

[fossil herald]

Buses will break down yes

[deep kestrel]

but it’s not 2020

[fossil herald]

But garage responsibility to fix it properly

[ripe wing]

are there still b9s in NP

[silent bluff]

Who are you?

[fossil herald]

@winter needle Also NP is responsible for why EN42 has engine oil in the transmission lol

[sterile pier]

probably rotting

most likely gonna get packed

[winter needle]

depends on how long the buses are there for, if a new gearbox isn’t authorised cause the bus is only there for a few months all they can do is temporarily repair it

[winter needle]

dark

edgware had that same problem

[fossil herald]

Gear 1 to 3 to 5 LOL

[ripe wing]

oh what en46

[lofty jolt]

Don’t break the gearbox next time lil bro

That bus was a rocket

[winter needle]

uno in edgware they were putting hydraulic oil in all the BDE axles

hydraulic oil is like water

axle oil is thick asf

how the fuck do they mix that up

they only clocked a few months ago

YESSSS my 1/2inch gun just came

[brazen temple]

votes looking a lot better now

[frozen edge]

Oh its up

[wintry topaz]

huh

but they chuck 10.8 E200s on the route

hows that make sense

[slate minnow]

oh ffs

[sterile pier]

yh like what

that dont make sense at all🤣🤣🤣🤣

[slate minnow]

trust me bro the WVLs are 11.3m long

[uncut mist]

is there a reason for it

as in

[crimson ridge]

supposedly too long

idk why bro

[uncut mist]

where abouts on the route can't it manage

[crimson ridge]

i don’t have the time to question run out controller

also doubt they’d replace all the blinds in every WVL

[slate minnow]

probably nowhere since the 244 used YY14s regularly🥀

[uncut mist]

dont blame you tbh 😭😭

[crimson ridge]

swr WVLs are shorter than Es anyway

E are 14’6

haven’t driven a WVL for a few weeks

[uncut mist]

length wise?

[crimson ridge]

don’t remember the height

no height

[wintry topaz]

watch 244 get electroliners which are 10.6

funny people

[slate minnow]

14’5

Prick….

[slate minnow]

[wintry topaz]

ye so this deffo means no WHV111

[slate minnow]

I don’t think WHV111 is even blinded anymore anyways💀

[crimson ridge]

WHV111 is poo

it’s been poo for a while now

[sterile pier]

if wvls are too long i expect to see e400evs ordered

[slate minnow]

did u ever manage to drive it

[sterile pier]

😁

[crimson ridge]

broke down almost every day it went out

[crimson ridge]

no, cos i didn’t chase it

[slate minnow]

ah

[crimson ridge]

have u heard the assault alarm on it

[slate minnow]

nope

[sterile pier]

yes u have

[slate minnow]

actually

yes i have

[sterile pier]

you nigger

[crimson ridge]

sounds just like the BD11s chinese toy police cars

[slate minnow]

Fuck off

yeah😭😭

[sterile pier]

pretty sure its getting a new engine

according to @fossil herald

[crimson ridge]

well i’d love to know what they’ll do with it once 286 goes

[sterile pier]

(no one bidded it)

[crimson ridge]

really?

[sterile pier]

yeah

[crimson ridge]

i don’t read blink often enough to know

[sterile pier]

someone did an FOI request and tfl said that no one bidded

[crimson ridge]

it’s my fave route to do

[sterile pier]

was a shock icl

[crimson ridge]

286 then 469

[sterile pier]

ur telling me not even go ahead want 286

fuck me

[crimson ridge]

realistically, it makes sense for MG to run it

[slate minnow]

forgot i had this

[crimson ridge]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

[slate minnow]

fuckass alarm

[sterile pier]

286 was gonna go BX at one point

[crimson ridge]

if MG was to go TM, they were gonna send 286 back to NX

[slate minnow]

they’ll just put it on 178

[crimson ridge]

no idea what it means for no one to bid for a route

nor what happens

[sterile pier]

tender gets extended

till someone bids it i guess

[crimson ridge]

how can they guarantee anyone’s gonna bid again 🤣

[slate minnow]

I’m gonna assume GAL dont want it then if they didnt bid it

💔💔

[sterile pier]

Anything but arriva tbh

[crimson ridge]

no they don’t cos they wanna get rid of the ferry vans

[sterile pier]

Theyll slap shitty byds on it

[crimson ridge]

byd gonna ruin 96 💔

[cedar epoch]

long live MB then 🥀

[sterile pier]

Mums

[cedar epoch]

got about 10 ferry vans

😭 💀

[wintry topaz]

waiting for MG to chuck a E400 on 469 "accidentally"

[crimson ridge]

96 my favourite route of all time

[sterile pier]

never happening

😭🙏

[crimson ridge]

i had the chance to take WS65 on 469 the other week

but they went “oh blah blah what if next driver isn’t type trained, we ain’t losing more mileage”

[sterile pier]

although im quite convinced a decker could get round 469

[cedar epoch]

never say never 😭

[slate minnow]

only with a bit of broken glass

[sterile pier]

where fam

[wintry topaz]

theres no low trees on 469

actually

[slate minnow]

church manorway?

naa them trees are LOW

[crimson ridge]

sewell road bus stops, church manorway

[slate minnow]

I feel like a decker would die going up the slope as well😭

[crimson ridge]

they should just do a 9.3m double decker 🙄🙄🙄

get that on 386

[slate minnow]

9.3m low height decker

[sterile pier]

probably not wrong

🤣🤣🤣

[wintry topaz]

9.9 E400EV

[cedar epoch]

don’t they make a very short streetdeck

low height

[crimson ridge]

bruv i have no idea why they’ve shoved those YX60s on 386

[slate minnow]

they wanna send all the ex firsts to NP probably

[crimson ridge]

if any drivers meet at woolacombe road, god forbid one of them refuse to reverse

[wintry topaz]

well at least 386 has a bit of extra capacity

[slate minnow]

thats what it looks like anyway

[crimson ridge]

no i know but

[sterile pier]

hardly any extra

[crimson ridge]

the YX60s are just too long for it

the drivers on 386 are useless a lot of the time

only a few are alright

[slate minnow]

wow

thats mad ngl

[crimson ridge]

the amount of times i’ve had to almost put all 6 on the pavement

cos they ‘can’t fit’

[slate minnow]

🥀🥀

[crimson ridge]

one driver got stuck turning right onto woolacoombe road from dursley in SE152

cos he took the turn tight

[slate minnow]

sounds like a route i need to drive😃

[wintry topaz]

deffo parked cars

they need to brush

[uncut mist]

& ppl wonder how them YY14s somewhat/how make it around

[crimson ridge]

??

YY14s are banned on 386

[slate minnow]

its happened looool

[crimson ridge]

i know it’s happened

[uncut mist]

theyve done 386

[crimson ridge]

just like WS110 and WS109 have

they’re still banned 🤣

[slate minnow]

icl its scary how those WSs get round it

[thick swift]

Arriva might be pushing TfL into decking 286 hence why they aren’t bidding the single deck version rn

[crimson ridge]

should’ve heard the health and safety supervisor at work after he heard 109 has been on it

[slate minnow]

with their long near mirror arm

[uncut mist]

do any of ur drivers acc realise the length of the buses that they drive or what

[sterile pier]

fuck arriva man

[thick swift]

that’s a good thing???

Arriva tryna push for DD for 286

[sterile pier]

Id even take stagecoach if it means it wouldnt get bd11s

[crimson ridge]

yeah but if he took the turn wider he would’ve made it

[thick swift]

that’s how 173 got decked

[uncut mist]

what happened 😭😭

[crimson ridge]

he was just furious

[sterile pier]

ye but itll get bd11s

[crimson ridge]

cos he took me to route test WS65 on it as they’d just changed the mirror arm to a short one

[cedar epoch]

god knows if whoever was at SM approved of an 11.5m on an 8.9m route 🥀

[thick swift]

Stagecoach don’t even have the capacity for 286

[sterile pier]

i know

[crimson ridge]

and the day before, we had seen WS109 on it when route learning 386

[thick swift]

This on r5 wen

[crimson ridge]

so we told him n he started swearing

[sterile pier]

get an mmc sen on386

[cedar epoch]

wouldn’t make it out of green street green

[sterile pier]

😁

[crimson ridge]

trust me i’ve tried

[thick swift]

somehow did 354 which I’m shocked honestly

[crimson ridge]

none have blinds

[sterile pier]

dark

[cedar epoch]

just stick some paper and a pen on the window

[crimson ridge]

i’ve gone mechanical enough times at night on 386

[cedar epoch]

it’ll be fineeeee

[thick swift]

Do the MMCs have 244? Or the WSs?

[crimson ridge]

nope

WSs have the 2017 blindset

some of them have 469

[thick swift]

MG Style fr 😭

[sterile pier]

shame a WS never did 244

[uncut mist]

LOL

WS's don't have 244

[sterile pier]

MG seem to have an agenda against type training people

[thick swift]

they gonna be reblinded soon if 386 getting MMCs

[crimson ridge]

WS have 108, 129, 225, 286, and some have 386 & 469

[uncut mist]

they have 469 but its not programmed for it fsr

[sterile pier]

the 469 drivers still are not type trained on streetlites to this day

[thick swift]

129…

[sterile pier]

😭🙏

[thick swift]

lmao

[cedar epoch]

put it on the 225

not even the same company

but stilll

[sterile pier]

theyve had 469 since 2021 btw

[cedar epoch]

🥀

[thick swift]

has happened

[crimson ridge]

baffled me cos if they did, 65 would be able to do it

[slate minnow]

if only💔

[sterile pier]

😹😹

[crimson ridge]

only the rear blind

[uncut mist]

the SENs have 244 yh

[slate minnow]

that’s stupid

[crimson ridge]

which SENs

[sterile pier]

not MG ones

[slate minnow]

but whatever fills the spot

[sterile pier]

the BX ones do

[thick swift]

Icl 108 got anything that was single deck when it was at MG now they just strict to each route lmao

[crimson ridge]

cos MG ones don’t

[sterile pier]

but chances of BX one touching 244 again are slim to none

[slate minnow]

electric contract thats why

either way

[thick swift]

BX SENs r dipping anyways

[uncut mist]

unlikely rn tbh

[slate minnow]

theres not much 108 can get at NX now

[uncut mist]

ah yh

[thick swift]

nah I meant before electrics

[crimson ridge]

doubt if they keep the same blindset when if send them

[sterile pier]

yh theyre coming MG

[slate minnow]

literally only Ws

[thick swift]

Like 2 of em yh rest idk

[slate minnow]

ye still

[sterile pier]

they all will💀

[slate minnow]

you still only had SE and WS

[sterile pier]

nowhere else for them to go

[thick swift]

why all💀

[sterile pier]

spares

[crimson ridge]

ENs and SEs have BX blindsets

[sterile pier]

for 286 and 469

[thick swift]

tbf they could be used to win this new 454

[crimson ridge]

EN47/8 do and some of the ex first ones

[sterile pier]

whens that supposed to start

[uncut mist]

how many of the ENs still have the BX set if yk

[thick swift]

Sometime next yr

[slate minnow]

Blendon!

[crimson ridge]

bizarre blind

[sterile pier]

Right

[slate minnow]

bizarre area too tbf

[sterile pier]

blendon so irrelevant

[thick swift]

Icl I forget b13 exists 😭

[sterile pier]

theres nothing there

[slate minnow]

b13 is on my to do list

funny route

doing 138 on friday tho

[sterile pier]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1329927596057690112/1424092697010114740/togif.gif

[slate minnow]

[thick swift]

They could also go to 126

[sterile pier]

They js wont

[cedar epoch]

hope ur bus goes mechanical in the middle of coney hall estate

[sterile pier]

they arent gonna waste time type training drivers for like 2 of them to come over

[slate minnow]

Ok no

[cedar epoch]

means no buses gonna go there cause whenever a breakdown happens they just cut the 138 💔

[sterile pier]

if anything theyd js send yy14s from MG to 126 and then the mmcs take their spot

[crimson ridge]

my favourite blinds at MG have to be…..

[thick swift]

@cedar epoch MB dropping 138 bc of space just to lose 208 at the end 🥀🥀🥀

[cedar epoch]

Real af 💔

[thick swift]

Could work

[sterile pier]

EHs will somehow see 244

ill make it happen

[crimson ridge]

omds travelodge wifi is crap

[cedar epoch]

long live the 119 tho

[thick swift]

Plus those MMCs could also head to RR school routes that single decker one at RR

646? I think that route

[slate minnow]

aaaa if ONLY

[crimson ridge]

literally

if 180 was at MG, best believe i’d never leave

[cedar epoch]

oh yeah where tf will the YW19’s run off to after the 208 goes bye 😭

[slate minnow]

cant believe these fuckers lost 180

[thick swift]

r u heading back to pd?

[cedar epoch]

older EH Hunting?

[thick swift]

tbf 160 gave sc a strong upper hand to win 180 asw

[uncut mist]

😭😭😭

[sterile pier]

180 needs to go back man

[crimson ridge]

my fave assault alarms

[sterile pier]

now that the sn64s are all being packed its getting dead

[crimson ridge]

MG rlly want it back apparently but makes no sense for them to run it

they’d have to move to TM

[thick swift]

it would make sense if it still was to Lewisham

[sterile pier]

💔💔💔

[thick swift]

at MG^

[cedar epoch]

average 54 service

[sterile pier]

why the fuck did they even cut it to NG

so dumb man

[thick swift]

Because 129

[slate minnow]

so 129 isnt useless as shit

[cedar epoch]

Real

[thick swift]

2 left to Canary Wharf
Right to Grove Park

[sterile pier]

bro fuck 129

180 to lewisham the OG

[slate minnow]

not like they were bothered to remove the abellio fleet numbers in their cabs either

🤣🤣

[thick swift]

129 Lewisham to West Silvertown is the most useful part rest no

[sterile pier]

been 4 years since i was last on a 180 wvl

💔💔💔

[cedar epoch]

better yet cut the 129 and replace it with some single deck route for Silvertown 🥀

[crimson ridge]

they kept all of the original stuff in all their ex buses

386 ones still have the first plaques

[thick swift]

also another reason why 474 is this hideous now

[slate minnow]

very cool

[slate minnow]

yeah but were talking about pre 2022 129

[sterile pier]

bovl3

[slate minnow]

only greenwich to north greenwich

[cedar epoch]

until recently on one of the old YX09 ex firsts it still had the outline of the first logo on it 🥀

before it got banished

[thick swift]

ohh yh NX 129😭

before bloody DS tookover

when did MG lose 129 to NX?

[sterile pier]

nah 180 used to have so much aura man

[sterile pier]

other way round

[thick swift]

ohh?

[sterile pier]

129 moved to MG around when it first opened

[sterile pier]

ahh take me back man

[slate minnow]

forgot exactly when

[thick swift]

lmao give it 3 more yrs and all the variation on 180 will be gone

[sterile pier]

real

[thick swift]

will be fully Electric by then

[thick swift]

they should’ve kept 180 to Cutty Sark at least

[slate minnow]

180 cut 2021 leak!!!!

[crimson ridge]

loved the fact i called the diesels on 122 & 180

[slate minnow]

crazy how those MMCs never got to do 291

[thick swift]

MMCs look good on 51/291

[sterile pier]

stagecoach shouldve won 51

back

[thick swift]

w what space

[crimson ridge]

they should’ve

but shame

[sterile pier]

dunno

make space

[slate minnow]

😢

[crimson ridge]

least PD getting 301 and SL3

[cedar epoch]

Bromley Common on the side of the A21

[sterile pier]

Fammmmm

[thick swift]

[crimson ridge]
