825 now back in service, although another unidentified e200 is inside the garage.

582 been moved bak back inside the garage

Thank God! I believe 582 in garage for maintenance when complete the maintenance then WN will collect them.

Expect some parts could be delay delivery. Example 1:- Last Year June, 6013 had breakdown on the 4 cause engine dead. It has taken out in for long time about 3 months for delay receive a new engine. Last September, 6013 back out on service. Hope it help ;)

Sometime I saw 900 still Trident! >:( 900 should be full operate on E400 but I guess there are problem with in nearly future will get high mileage.

Hello, Simon

1645 need repaint and there are worn out! Some Mercs T & V need more repaint?
I suppose there are lots president being to repaint rather than Mercs Mark 2 that is not fair. T & V should be repaint and running in extra years. Merc T & V and President should not withdrawn as soon and stay in next three years!

I believe 1556 is best sound of our in fleet list.

Isn't 2153 in for repaint, wonder if it will come out blue or red?

Yes, It has completed repaint in Walsall garage. Awaiting for collect it. Just repaint to Sky.

6013 tends to post his guesswork as though it's fact

Exactly! Isn't 2153 the extra bus for the 20? As Matt said 2154 replaced 4816 so wouldn't go to CV

You are not correctly! CV need One or Two more B7RLE for Spare time.


Present till 1st Sept:-

7 B7RLE on the 9 9A - PVR
2 B7RLE on the 1 - PVR
13 B7RLE on the 20's - PVR
2 B7RLE spare- PVR

From 1st Sept:-

7 B7RLE on the 9/9A- PVR Normal
2 B7RLE on the 1- PVR normal
14 or 15 B7RLE on the 20's- PVR additional 1 or 2 because 20A extend to University Hospital and
0 or 1 B7rle spare - PVR need extra..


If B7RLE breakdown on 20's that maybe B7RLE doesn't have spare in garage and will have take old single decker but cannot use Double decker on 20E because lower bridge = 10.5

I think 1678 will just extra fleet list or replacement 1604.

The B7RLE isn't for the 1 service they are for 20 and 9/A service.

Yes! When spare will going on the 1. I can see everyday B7RLE on the 1 same does OmLiniks.

Will 4881 & 4884 remain unbranded or receive branding , if they haven't been branded already

You should know! 4881 awaiting for receive a new branding. 4884 is maybe not receive and I believe 4884 will none branded.

Excuse me! >:( Why "Should he know"?!

4880-4883 still branded and 4884 is not sure!

If CV planning for 2154 transferred to CV because CV need one more B7RLE due to 20A extended to University Hospital.

Also batch 4125-4137 need repaint/refurbishment looking tatty with faded Walsall road branding still visable. Last repaint was September 2006.

I believe 4129 will have repaint after repair complete.

1863 & 1864 due to transferred to PB in this months.
There are One last OmLinik 1867!

Anyone 1867 still running in CV or PB?

20A extend to somewhere.....Ooooo


20A will extend to University Hospital via Bell Green Riley Square, Henley Rd, and Woodway Lane with Every 30min Monday till Saturday between 06:30 18:30.

Make sure correct which on catch on 20A and 20A.

20A- Bell Green; NOT SERVE in University Hospital and Just terminal at Bell Green Riley Square. Serve on Sunday, Mon-Sat from 18:30 till 23:30, 04:30 till 06:30

20A- University; Serve in University Hospital. Serve on Mon to Sat from 06:30 to 18:30 but NOT SERVE on Sunday!

From University Hospital to Henley Rd to Bell Green (Terminal) to past Arena Retail Park to Foleshill Rd to City Centre.


*2153 need at CV reason 20's will extra buses from 1st September. So Only Two Spare B7RLE will displace onto 20's route for extra buses. I think One or Two B7RLE still spare and will running on the 1 so that If 9/A B7RLE breakdown that will take mercs or Double decker can on the 9/9A. If 20's B7RLE breakdown that will take mercs only NOT Double Decker!

As per most other years an alteration to the 11/12 service and or timetable for the start of University term time would be expected, hopefully the route change isn't going to be something major, might just be the 11X journey to operate as an 11, or maybe something to do with the long term roadworks at Leamington High Street.

On another subject and I'm surprised 6013 hasn't yet mentioned...  Service 20A will extend during Mon-Sat daytimes via Henley Road to University Hospital Walsgrave starting Monday 2nd September (the extension generally follows De Courcey's 778 route), there has been a few ongoing moans around the Henley Road area since service 33 was withdrawn. It is hopefully an excuse for keeping hold of 2153 ;D

Back on UK! I am aware of 20A extend to University Hospital by Centro. That will running between 06:30am till 18:30!

This is probably NXWM's best branding yet I would say and ties in nicely with the 33 green, glad to have them on my local routes :)

33 & 51 branding style are rubbish! 33 & 51 need get a new branding similar on 8/8A CV!
