So basically: 4738-4762 YW – PE/x25 from 4800-4829 PE - YW.

Other planned/possible movements during March 2013:
684/687/693/708/711 WN – Withdrawn
1480 PB – Withdrawn
1543/1545 WN – PE [by 9/3]
1562 CV – Withdrawn [I guess 1562 may already have left Coventry]
1690 WN to Training School
4135/4305-12/20-21/84-85 WN - BC/YW (tbc) [Some or all these may be moving]
7115/7123 Withdrawn – NX Dundee (tbc)

Long-term loans: 2122 BC – AG & 2153 WN – AG



Paul

2122 & 2153 are already shown on the fleetlist as AG buses.

Also for March, 4 x WB Merc to PE (for 53/289)

With 2 mercs already being transferred in from Wolverhampton I wonder if PE will receive any mercs from WB may be two at the most as it might allow a further 4 mercs to be withdrawn from WB with 1526/1622 at a guess being the next two to go.

Ash,

Don't forget Pensnett are still two Mercs down after loosing 1663 & 1664

I forgot about those two being withdrawn so yeah it would be expected for PE to receive some mercs from WB may be 1523/1577/1628/1632 possibly to keep with series of fleet numbers of Mercs PE already have.

Don't think its fully confirmed - but it seems possible those two are heading north. I can't remember now, have they been used in anger in the West Mids?

No, both made it as far as AG garage / received LED's & were prepared for service but neither made it in to service that I am aware of.

The Real 4778

Probably already mentioned somewhere above, but 7123 had reached Miller Street yard (Moorsom St side) by last weekend.
Don't you start.

Thanks for the info, don't think its been mentioned. 7123 was a the Car Park, but as that has now been vacated I suspect it may have been moved to storage @ LH

At a guess it will be 4805 -4829 to YW, leaving 4800 - 4804 at PE as they probably have less mileage on them.
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

#69
7123, 7126 and 7115 all at Miller Street today, facing the gates on Moorsom Street. None have any destination displays in them and 7126 still has its black masking on the glass for its previous Dundee spec roller blinds.

As a matter of interest re the comment above, why would 4800-4 have lower mileages? Were they the un branded ones?

They were. They were often used on the 22/23 and especially on Sundays when at BC. But I wouldn't know if they'd have lower mileages compared with the others.

Was just thinking that, as they were never branded for the 9, they weren't used on there so often and so you would think that the mileage would be lower.

To keep number continuity, it makes sense to either keep 4800 - 4804 or 4825 - 4829. To me the latter mileage would be higher.

I would think 4800-4810 would have the most mileage, having worked on the 22/23 before their move on PE and having been the only Enviros unbranded, therefore having to work the 141, you also have to consider that the 141 used to interwork with the 222E in Merry Hill when the 222 was extended to Halesowen

Some 9 cards run more kilometres than 2 18 hour 141  and 222 cards combined and the 246 is even less

And also for a brief time last year, two evening trips on an Enviro on the 238, said bus having also spent a day on the 141
