Does anyone know when/if the demo is due back out?

WBs 823 on loan to WN on the 69

As I've mentioned in a previous post about Let's Go, according to one driver if a regular driver or bus is unavailable for the contract routes (63/64/65/303) they will take a bus and/or driver off their commercial routes as they get paid to run the contract and would lose money otherwise. 

As for the stops in Chapel Ash, although 891 was added to the list of services on the stop flag this seems to have been an oversight by TfWM as the 891 doesn't stop there.

What's the 891 have to do with Let's Go its a completely different company...

Looks as though Edwards Coaches will be replacing their entire NX fleet as well as expanding it, following a massive fleet investment:

68 x Scania / Levante 3A's are on order of which 14 were delivered just before Xmas, leaving 54 still to follow:

10 x Van Hool Altano's will also follow in June likely replacing the 10 x Caetano Boa Vista coaches (6 x 66 plate & 4 x 18 plate)

Will the Boa Vistas transfer over to be used on other NX work or will they be leaving all together.

Today they appear to be following the previous route and serving the stops omitted on Monday. This is very confusing.

YX64 VOM has a notice informing you about the change

On loan, as until all the drivers are trained it can't be used at PN

Wouldn't it be more logical to send 753 or a 84* to PN as there already type trained on E200s and with the 50 going and 27/27A surely that frees up some E200s

Wonder if enviros can get round or are they getting something for 63/4/5 service

Pretty easily the only parts they may struggle is on the 63 on
Owen Road,Rayleigh Road and Church road with parked cars but with it being Let's go I'm sure they will use their usual antics...

Other than that they will fit round
