Enviro400 Transfers


A couple of weeks ago some former Scotland Enviro400s transferred into the Eastbourne fleet they are SP60 plates and have fleetnumbers 19648-19653. They are for the 1/1A and are replacing 58 plate Enviro300s 27571-27582 some have departed already. They all have entered service when they are yet to have a repaint after their Tayway 73 branding gets removed some have already had their branding removed while others could possibly still be in branding. As well as the 1/A they can possibly be found on another routes as well. 

On Monday I headed out to sample one of the recently transferred Enviro400s it was successful after rejecting about 3 Enviro200s and a MAN one pulled up it was 19652 ( SP60 DPU ) and I wasn't impressed with its performance its interior at the back didn't match and it sounded awful. I have a interior shot from inside 19652 and a picture of 19652 shortly I got off it.

In other news the 06 plate former Diamond Enviro300s are joining the fleet from Dover to replace most of the MANs the 58 plate Enviro300s are going to Dover to replace them and 27571 ( GX58 GKA ) and 27573 ( GX58 GKD ) have already gone.
