4496 rubbed down outside the paint shop earlier. Can't see it on Tony's last list

4198 also parked there, but dought that's there for a repaint

Has anyone found all of the names for the Wolverhampton Enviro400Hs yet?

The only ones I have been able to name are

5403 - Balvinder Kaur
5405 - Demira

Plus can we also use this thread for the new names of the  'Outer Circle' branded Geminis?

I am hopefully heading this way later in the week, and am hoping to find the S-JUA decker at Oswestry.

Does anyone where it may appear, or knows if it has a regular route or if it is not in use over the school holidays

Why have a number of buses had their adverts on the offside removed and plain boards put in their place? Like 4360

A number of PB buses have also had this done as well (plus a few Sutton buses have had the ads removed completely). Also a few from other garages have too that I have seen over the past weeks

I know its rather trivial, but I was just wondering why

Problems with the overhead wires between Black Lake and Dudley Street today means no trams between the 2 stations. People have to walk between the two stations, with trams from either directions terminating at their respective station.

I don't know if this was related, but there was no conductors on either of the 2 trams I got on today. Normal for a Sunday service? (I couldn't imagine so)

4720 (Reserve @ Derby) is currently at Burton, on the 7 today

Does anyone know the buses that have recently left Leicester recently with the Enviro400s entering service?

I know that

B7TLs 32062 and 32063 have gone to Great Yarmouth and 32054/32055 to Potteries

And that B7Ls 66307, 66311 are with Potteries also

Thanks in advance  ;D

With people asking on many different threads for sightings of buses, I thought it would be easier to have them all in one place, and saves clogging up other threads

Anyway, if 4347 is out tomorrow and anyone sees it, can you please let me know

It looks like the guy that runs the 40X has a new bus.

An ex-Stagecoach Dart/ALX200, Reg 'S-CVV' (Could have been 'S458 CVV') was on there today, still in full Stagecoach livery with a black blind (with route info) stuck where the destination display would be

It looks like the Metro may get extended to Coventry before 2026 with HS2 if that goes ahead

Was this the full list of the buses treated in this way?

Perry Barr - 4259, 4263 (4234 would have if it was not decapitated)

Yardley Wood - 4341, 4351, 4383

Birmingham Central - 4197, 4433



Do I take it as only 4259, 4263, 4351 and 4383 are still in this condition?

I like to keep track of these, so to not clog up garage threads, I will list them here.

Perry Barr have 4262, another I have seen this morning is 4281. Tony has also mentioned 1839

Central 4328

Yardley Wood 4370

Bordesley 1836 and 1837 (recent Perry Barr transfers)

None of Walsall's, West Brom's and Pensnett's TWM liveried vehicles have been done as of yet

If there is any more, feel free to list

Following on from the 11E sightings lately, I will start off this thread with one I saw last Saturday,

of 4910 on a 957E to the Bullring Markets

Also, one I pictured in 2010, 4683 on a 51E to Aston 6 Ways

Tony, what is that black sticker in the second upper deck window? Is it the fares or what?

Advertising the NXWM RTI app I believe

That's right. The app tells you when the next bus is due at a particular stop in realtime, not timetabled time

Arriva MPD with 35 branding (2152 I guess, unless there is another one branded now) on the 604 today

While passing Birmingham Coach Station on Tuesday, I looked in and saw one of the Levante coaches on the 420 in what looked like Coventry heritage livery (dark red and cream), like on NX 4453. Anyone else seen it? It might have been MD22 though, with its ad for Pride of Britian  ::)

I have been informed via Flickr that 4762 has been branded for the 50, with blue branding.

I'm guessing that these are the new VDLs for the X38 currently at Heysham (3767 and 3768) 2nd and 3rd pictures down
