Looks like a few of the unconfirmed routes
Some are getting BD11 and some are either delayed
SL8 might still get a WDE order
What’s 7 PVR?
around 14 rn and will get cut to Marble Arch
12 atm
so prolly like 11/12
Yh that sound about right
105 In total - SL8
It’s 77
I swear E9 can’t handle the 10.9s
Might get the shorter ones
Like
240
the gen 2s are shorter anyway pretty sure
its a diff spec
There’s two lengths
These are longer
The shorter one doesn’t have the stalker seat
debatable
Pitshanger is the only issue but a certain driver took an LT round there completely fine on e2
Oh are they 10.6m
I thought 7 was getting liners
but aren’t the rest of the DDs getting BD11s
i hope so
no issue w BDEs btw
theyll stray anw so
either way ur getting them
ts gotta be rb atp
anyway
wdes are way better
and i'd rather see bdes sometimes than every time
Yh icl 18 is so tapped now with them being the only thing on it
