Most of the LO 2 axles are scrapped of their engines. Even if they are willing, at most 5 units will be back on the road.Originally posted by rancour5:that is impossble to happen...there is a general lack of DDs...some1 shd appeal to put the LO2Xs back on the road.
There are already lots of 2-axle VOs during that timeframe. Sv. 151 should get double-decks too, SBST REALLY need to buy more double-decks to cope with the loads.Originally posted by Zilchster:I wish they would deploy double decks around 5 plus...lotsa students r going home at that time...
that is not as major problem, the thing is whether they are willing to do it or not. They strip the engines to use as spare only what. so if they put it back..how hard can it be??Originally posted by off_service:Most of the LO 2 axles are scrapped of their engines.

No. The engines are sold to the scrapyard, and the scrapyard owner takes out the engine and puts it for sale to other countries who need spare parts, since Leyland is no more.Originally posted by rancour5:that is not as major problem, the thing is whether they are willing to do it or not.

Even if SBST buys more air con double deckers, it seems reluctant to deploy them on service 74.Originally posted by SBS9818A:There are already lots of 2-axle VOs during that timeframe. Sv. 151 should get double-decks too, SBST REALLY need to buy more double-decks to cope with the loads.
