Is a lot of the route choice down to the level accessing and removing of ramps, etc. Would imagine time savings and potential diagram improvements are also considered with more of a mix at central being possible with a fixed fleet.

Any update on the Volvos hitting the road on the 99? Does anyone know the plan and if they will also be on locals or is there just enough for that alone

Thanks Suppose irrespective of which alternative, there is a fair amount more benefit of the 802 on those than Scarborough

It looks like 253 doesn’t save anything and just using vehicles more locally or missing something. Anything more changing across patch?

With Scarborough losing its 802s - is this to enable more ECML to Redcar be operated under electric and have faster speeds?

Strange Would expect the benefits to be done as per the west and Dundee

When are the final Yutongs due into service at Larbert? Looks to be a few still to hit the road. Also will we see X37 run with EVs in Sunday’s as like the west that everything that can physically take it round the route is run with them

Slightly off topic but Cumbernauld as a network must be up for review. If Fife cutting due to costs then would expect that to be the same.

Looks like reducing some express services aswell to match cock requirements. This must be the next biggest cull in Fife given recent cut backs. Presume if look to pre Covid and even Glasgow down to 3 v 2 then there must be a sharp drop in requirements.

Would it be worth extending wires in Plt 4 at york to enable 802 to use wires as much when working to Scarborough. Speed is a factor but surely emissions would also benefit in the station if those services could benefit at least until arrival

So given what was planed - is it simple renewals or any improvements

Are they trying to maximise the amount of EV journeys with this interworking?

I am confused about the getting out of gear as it’s an EV with no gears. Sounds like a driver issue with it which can be understandable given only in service few days

Will we see the new EVs roll out next week to coincide with service changes? Thinking particularly the 747s

Would think with some planning it would be possible to use platforms suitable for this.

Would there be the ability for Scarborough trips on 802 to use it for the short distance between York and Ulleskelf? Would obviously need to be arr/dep the appropriate platform at York.

Does anyone have a download or pics of the new timetable draft. 1230 from Edinburgh which is the 0952 ex Aberdeen is always late and has 5 mins to load at Edinburgh which is wild. Just wandering if this changes any

Could the not convert the evening and more weekend ( All Sunday ) to electric traction? Surely a better plan to maximise when possible. Even off peak using a unit that runs off to remain out and the 156 stable till peak?

The WHS Plastics contract moved to EYMS?

Why did the other changes in Ayrshire not happen and be reverted back in recent notice ano proceedings? Being synical and thinking more cost cutting following pay deal
