DD Activity !

Post by DD12 » 14:04 Wednesday 21st October 2026

Having just got back from Cornwall ( - where Go-Ahead is now using old E400s and newer MMCs, on some workings of the 96 Wadebridge - Port Isaac) - I was temporarily confused to see a 74 reg E400MMC in Worcester on the 149 !
DIAMOND have also recently been using some 2011 E400s on the 149, as well as their StreetDecks ( - some of which are in "wraps").

On some days recently FIRST Worcester have managed to use all 19 of their E400s, whereas a lot of single-deckers have not been in service or tracked (bustimes).

Yesterday First used a DD on the 31A / 31 for the first time - following on from the AM 333/332 which looks set to be a regular DD now.

Other recent "DD exotica" has included the AM 334 yesterday, and a couple of early AM 35s !!! - albeit only Dines Green to Crowngate (to avoid decapitations).

ALSO, reported on Facebook is an exchange of First DDs between "Up-North" depots and Welsh depots, being done via Padmore Street !
