Buses around Plymouth Predictions 2016 Recap

Good evening everyone

Here is a recap of my predictions for 2016

Let's see how I did

Bus Companies:

Plymouth Citybus

- Seeing two B7RLEs (108 & 109) and some more Darts enter the swoops livery

108 did, 109 didn't and the two second hand Darts (53 & 54 did) (info from Plymothian Transit fleetlist)

- Some more buses (new or second hand) enter the fleet and maybe even some ADL Enviro 200MMC/400MMCs. If there are any more second hand buses, I predict they will be around 5-7 years old.

Yes some did but they were MAN Ecocitys which are 3.5-4 years old

Stagecoach South West

- A greater presence in Plymouth
No not really

- ADL Enviro 400MMCs for the Gold and X38 (whether they'd be ones that are already in the fleet or new ones)
There have been ADL Enviro 400MMCs which have been seen on the X38
- Another 'Gold' route but this time within Plymouth

Nope

Target Travel

- Possibility on taking on at least 1 new route 
They've got the 223 now so yes that point is true

- Hopefully some more buses, I wouldn't mind seeing some newer ADL Enviro 200s and Optare Solos

Three newer Optare Solos have entered the fleet; two 08 regs and an 09 one
Other buses include a Wright Meridian for the PR3 (an 08 reg)

Other Independents

- Jacketts Coaches: The 13 won't be operated by them at the end of the year. 
I was incorrect as is still operated by them

- Tally Ho & Countrybus: No real difference

Yep

And other predictions

New coach station

- Should hopefully be around by end of the year

It is, it opened in September

The train station

- Hopefully at least some plans of what a refurbished station should look like

That too

Buses around Plymouth

- More photos and presence at various bus related events around Plymouth
Yes that is right

Prediction for 2017 coming soon
