W M A T is the official company name, not what it will trade as.
Are they (ring and ride) staying where they are at their current depots or are they moving to the main national express wm depots?
I don't know if this has been asked or answered before
Thanks Lee

I don't think any company in the country would have room for an extra 500 vehicles in their garages

Thanks Tony I just thought I'd ask
Will the minibuses be in the crimson livery or west Midlands bus livery.

I doubt they'd be in either - I assumed they'd either retain the ring and ride livery/brand or have a new livery and branding if they market themselves as National Express Accessible Transport..

They are going in a new livery, but I cannot disclose what it is or put a photo on the internet until the launch, A1001 is already in the new livery

When will the launch be?
Love the livery on 1001. But I think passengers will be in for a surprise when a pink buses pulls uout outside to take you out for ther day.

Why?
There's all sorts of random colours at the moment, remember a lot of the time the driver comes and knocks your door and escorts you to the bus
Purple A1001 is now in use from Frankley depot. Most of the Aston allocated fleet now has fleetnumbers applied
A1001 noted doing the rounds in Longbridge/Frankley area today. Just got a quick photo of it at Longbridge

Passed in Bartley Green earlier this week.. Had my back turned to it, and only clocked it as it zoomed past me! 😂
Anyone seen the new livery? It's probably one of my favourite all time liveries. Pink with a gradient to purple. Me likey.

Are you on a mission to post as much false information as possible today?

If you look at the Birmingham City Centre Map it clearly states West Midlands on demand the replacement works for Ring and ride. What's the saying 'don't shoot the messenger'. I am not posting wrong info. It's what I see every day. So sorry.
That's the City Centre guide on the website West Midlands Network.
Tell TfWM it's wrong and there giving out incorrect info. See what they come back with.

There's a huge difference between the name of a company, the trading name used and the name of a service

OK I'm only going by what I know so if that's the name of the service then OK. I do know that started to call the company NEET and then I saw the thing on the map.

National Express Accessible Transport

Sorry yes it's NEAT spell check needed. 😂 Which I know there is spell check but I don't use it. Maybe I should. Sorry
