Sherlock please explain why they are regarded as different buses then? Walsall and PN and AG have old ones, BC, WN, PB new ones
It's only a loan, it wont stay there forever. Plus it's only a few parts that differ from the older ones so it's ok to loan it for a few days.

Presumably on loan while 6715 is away for accident damage.
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

Ahhhh Elementary my dear Watson. It was due to the wheel rims required different equipment so to save on having the equipment at multiple garage they decided to install at three garages rather than six which is cheaper.

So have they had to install it at Pensnett to cope with the single loan vehicle - or are they relying on wing and a prayer that it doesn't get a puncture or anything else requiring attention to the alloy wheels?  ;D  ???

Thanks Tony - I guess if something went wrong it would simply be swapped as far as loan is concerned.

Who? There is an inspector at Stourbridge, speaking of which I know who it is this week, and he like other inspectors works his arse off to control the 9 and the 246.

The 9s are a lost cause, can he give drivers instructions to be a 9E or do drivers have to go through AVL?
