Adding Capacity (J8960) - a photo on Flickriver

McGill's sole Alexander Enviro 400, SN59 AWX, has recently been reallocated to Johnstone and service 38. It was working the 1527 ex-Paisley service to Glasgow from Kilbarchan.

The double decker was previously an Alexander Dennis demonstrator which McGill's trialled on routes out of Greenock. McGill's later purchased it from Connex, Jersey and the vehicle became G8960 operating from Greenock, predominately on services between Largs, Greenock, Braehead & Glasgow (901/906/908). In 2014, when Largs/Glasgow services were became branded as ClydeFlyer, G8960 received a repaint into the "white top" livery and ClydeFlyer branding. It worked ClydeFlyer services alongside '64 Euro 6 Citaros until a batch of '66 Euro 6 Citaros arrived at Greenock in November 2016. The vehicle lost the ClydeFlyer branding and traditional gold stripe and received the new route branding for the X7 between Greenock/Linwood & Glasgow. Now it has been realloacted to Johnstone, providing additional capacity on the 38 between Spateston/Kilbarchan & Glasgow following the withdrawal and replacement of the articulated Citaros. It will presumably gain 38 route branding which I believe is coming soon.

In other fleet news, 5500/1/2/3 are now at Barrhead Depot, joining 8442/3 which have recently transferred from Coatbridge.
