drivers advising me that some tridents are going and they are having more E200s or E400s, or maybe minibuses ?
Anyone know if this is true ?

They definitely won't be having minibuses unless any are on order.

If anything, I would have expected CV to be the recipient of extra non compliant BC Tridents to allow the remaining artics to be removed from service short term.

4775 or 4776 pulled in behind me around 2pm on The Priory Queensway with Private on the blinds. Possible private hire, it then left after me and turned into Moor Street, could have been going to Central? Strange to see Coventry buses in Brum

4776, the one with the new Ticket Machine fitted. It's been over to Quinton for some reason so will probably get reported as running late on the 9 soon!

Is that going back into service soon, or will it have to wait until more buses have it fitted?

Jordan

Saw it today, looks nowhere near as good as 4836! What a waste of such a nice livery.
