Will any of the Ex-Wessex Plaxton Centro's be repainted anytime soon? The majority are looking considerably battered now...

I agree they are not presented very well and it is something we are not happy with.

There are a number that need doing so it is going to take time, but we are working our way through the fleet.

@Simon Dunn are you aware of the issues regarding 30411. It regularly needs replacing, so wondered do you know what's wrong with it?

Our Tividale Engineering Manager advises me that

1.  We paid for a replacement engine for the vehicle.
2.  After being replaced the vehicle started to have injector sleeves leaking, so the provider came and repaired the engine under warranty
3.  The vehicle then operated without fault for 2-3 weeks.
4.  We have since had some other errors, the vehicle is now parked up awaiting a discussion with the engine provider

Good to hear it's being attended to rather than put out in service to breakdown

Thanks for your reply

The 23 has been allocated Mellors on a discretionary basis.  If there is an availability issue, then it won't be

Hello again Simon,

The 19:07 has departed from Halesowen without stopping on stand. Front destination displays 4H Halesowen. He's gone speeding up the hill towards Hayley green at 19:10. He arrive at the bottom of bus station at 19:04.

Happening far too often wouldn't you agree?

Fleet number 30880

Shit service

Thanks

So that I am clear.

Are you saying the service wasn't on stand in Halesowen, whilst it sat and waited from 1904 to 1907 hrs?

Yes it waited in the layover bit down the bottom of the bus station presumably for a cigarette, leaving without going to stand C (where it's supposed to stop to pick up passengers)
