And what about sundays? I berlieve it does interwork with tue 2 as very often you get the 54 plate cadets branded as the 2 opersting the route

No definately operates stand alone, the driver leaves the depot at 1830 every evening and will takw what ever bus is available.  Usually it has been a bus which has been on the 2 service as its back early enough to be fuelled and then ro go on the 335 for the evening

Still confused, because where will the buses go then, because they can't stop at Hill Top if no services to operate?
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

It doesn't sound very good if Arriva are re-deploying nearly new buses elsewhere, no doubt will be replaced by the ex London refurbished Darts

The buses have made the impression needed in making centro think a new operator in the area with the resources like NX really want to invest in the area and operation of their tendered work. Well they won the tenders and looked good. The routes they run don't warrant the buses.

Depends whether they won the contracts on the proviso that new buses were used on the routes?

I doubt that would have been the case but it sounds good if they put in their bid with a foot note saying new vehicles will be sought for the extra work
