  Thanks for compiling and updating the list so far, it's a very useful reference to those not as readily in tune with the ground movements.  I have a little suggestion though, as more Wrights get registered and deployed, can I suggest that you list the regoes by perm service instead of vice versa, so that it might be easier to read?

  e.g. BRBP 60: 7505R 7508H 7509E 7516J etc

  Thanks! :)

  Agreed.

  Especially there will be 450 new Wrights and another unknown number in future since there are still 300 plus VO3xes that needs to be replaced in the next 10 years.

  You should worry more about the Volvo B10Ms.

  You forgot, the Volvo Olympian 2-axle and Volvo Olympian 3-axle Batch 1 will be de-registered in the next few weeks. Probably that the Wrights were also replacing the Volvo Olympians.

  You have 7 years to ride on the B10Ms, why should we be worried about?

  if the LOs are extended what are the chances the VOs (3 axle)wont get extended?

  I have a feeling that the VO3xles batch 1 might get extended until more new double deckers are bought in the coming months, exclusive of the current order of the 450 buses...

  The Olympians don't look or feel 17 years old at all...they are arguably the best maintained buses...even compared with the SDs. Especially the VO3X batch 1!

  I beg to differ...

  The Volvo B10M Striders and DM3500s are still the best maintained single deckers in the whole of SBST fleet.

  Yeah, noticed that too, 7617 was on 17 today. I suppose they are adding more wrights to prepare the service for WAB status, along with 30 and 99.
