I think they are testing this for when the double decker hydroliner gets delivered for route 420

@@jazstock421 That's what I'm thinking.

@@TheMetrobusEnthusiast But why would they do it for 420, and not 460 or 480?

[@TheMetrobusEnthusiast]

@scmtuk3662 Well, it did go on the 460 on Tuesday, but it was only for the schedule that serves St Bede's school before going onto the 420. Good question.

[@departtment]

@@TheMetrobusEnthusiastpresumably because the 420 needs a Euro6 bus whereas the 460 doesn’t?

[@Londonbusenthusiast353]

Well this was on the 820 this morning and is now on the 420 so it’s probably a trial for the double decker ones but why not just get a plain white one and test it surely It would be better

[@TheMetrobusEnthusiast]

@@Londonbusenthusiast353 Nah, it's more practical to use ones they already have.

Any idea when the route 100 ones come back?

[@TheMetrobusEnthusiast]

@menzi54 By the end of February if everything goes to plan.
