I came across NXWM 2153 on the 5 yesterday in Coventry. The bus has had NXC vinyls added to the outside of the bus whilst still having NXWM vinyls to.

That would look better with the NXWM logo's took off first.
Now 2153 has been purchased by National Express, will it be an extra vehicle for this years order, or will it make up one of the 23 on order for CV?

Stu 2153 and 2154 are for NXWM then 2155-2177 are for Cov. 2153 is at Cov for Driver training I think, but I'm not to syre but I do know 2155-77 are for Cov.
I still think the old NXWM white logo it had on the front was brilliant, a white logo on a white bus...
I think it looks brilliant being all white with the black around the front lights, shame the rest of them don't have black round the lights I think it really suits!
is 2153 still at CV
and what garage is having bus 2154 ?

We won't know until 2154 is seen out in service, or someone in the know finds out!! 2153 may appear at the same garage as 2154

You're not getting on people's nerves. It may stay at Coventry until the new B7RLE's are in service, and go to there 2154 enters service, after a repaint I would think (only guessing)

Of course it could also go to Pensnett or stay at Coventry, or if some more Eclipse are ordered go to the next garage due to receive some to train the staff there!

I hope 2153 goes back to PE, miss seeing it on the 120
It retains National Express West Midlands fleetnames above windows but has gained National Express Coventry fleetnames below them and also on the rear of the vehicle.

Think some of us are aware but thanks anyway :) There is a photo on flickr of 2153 with NXC and NXWM Logos
As Nathan said, hopefully it returns to PE :)

Is there any idea where 2153 will end up?
Now the 9/A has been partially converted to B7s 2153 regularly appears on these routes.

Will The 9/9A and 20/A/E eventually be fully B7RLE operated giving that both routes are branded?
Presume so with a couple used on the 1.
Three (2155-7) are not route branded but have another new bus for you on them.
Whether 2153 stays remains to be seen.
Had a day out in Warwickshire today working on the 20 today.
