An Enviro400EV demonstrator (possibly that seen at the second-gen launch in November 2023) is registered as AD24 ZEB.


Elsewhere, the first four of sixty Solo SRs recently ordered by Stagecoach (48101-4; diverted from Ardrossan to Manchester for Bee Network duties) are listed on BLOTW as YJ24 BNA/B/D/E.

The second one is AD24BEV, as seen in the photos in the below X post from Alexander Dennis.
From the mile straight to the hill route, across handling circuits and twist humps – our guests at the Alexander Dennis Track Days enjoyed the full breadth of facilities at Millbrook Proving Ground. The rides gave a sample of the comfort of our next-generation electric buses.

Expressway Coaches of Rotherham have a brand new Mercedes Benz Tourismo registered BF24 AHG, seen in fleet livery but without names on side by myself today in Barnsley.

Possibly the first facelifted full-height Streetdeck Electroliners have surfaced, for Stagecoach London, including 82054 (LV24 EVC)

Two new E400MMCs have arrived at Lochs Motors, Isle of Lewis... Hopefully they get tucked up somewhere out the wind most days!

To add to the Solos at Manchester, theres YJ24 BNF/K/N/X 48105/6/8/12, and 2 more unnumbered ones (at the time of posting) YJ24 BNU/V. These ones have been diverted from Lillyhall and Chichester.

Don't imagine Cumbria or west Scotland are at all happy at the shiny new buses being diverted to Manchester, I assume these will be replaced by later builds from the batch or will they exercise one of No doubt many options for additional vehicles? Would love some YouTube footage of these new diesel ones in service

A fresh Enviro400FCEV demonstrator (SK24 CSZ) was among the buses on display at yesterday's ADL open day in Farnborough.

Is it actually new or one of the 2 demonstrators that was never registered when built? I can't imagine them making a third demonstrator bearing in mind the original demonstrator hasn't been pounding the streets that much.

Fair point. I didn't think they'd leave it that long to register (one of) them post-homologation.

Globe Holidays of Barnsley have another brand new Enviro 200 MMC registered SK24 CUH running in plain white.

The new 24 plate Yutong’s are starting to appear in service with Stagecoach Yorkshire from Rawmarsh depot.

Ohhh! I take it the Plaxton Panthers are going to the bin? Seen one of the Plaxtons a few months ago looked rather battered!

Should imagine the panthers are knackered
The replacement is surprising, however, I would have expected them to cheap out and go for a high specification decker of some kind for the sake of providing low floor access and reduced cost, then again, they do seem to be ordering less ADL products these days other than electrics And something like a street deck probably wouldn't work for them as they've had reliability issues with the diesel variants

I’ve heard the panthers were planned to replace south wests Profiles, but that was some months ago, and as always plans may have changed
