This morning, I have spoken to driver. He say" NXC will get a 15 or more than 15 Hybrid come into 2014!" He believe Hybrid will be on the 13 and He say" 13 route PVR is 9 or 10 including one for peak time and so 3 or 4 Hybrid maybe going on the 6/6A, 16/16A but he not sure about 11/12.

If NXC want keep spare hybrid on the 6/6A, and 16/16A that other E400 (4830-4832 & 4885-4889 will have much on the 11/12 expect sometime on the 10)

And he has confirm of 15 or more than 15 Hybrid will part of 300 order!

And of course the driver you spoke to will be the one responsible for placing orders deciding allocations etc.....

The remainder of the Green Bus 4 which no doubt the NXC bid will have been included in is yet to be announced

Thanks Cheers!  ;)

If 4218 return to Coventry garage and should be 4319 transferred to YW.

Yes! I did seen at today. 2170 has completed the new branding on foleshill Rd and out on the 20 at today.

It might have been 2160 but probs totally wrong but one b7rle had branding for the 9/9A on the far side but not on the near side so one half branded and the other not. Seems a bit strange?

Yes I saw that one yesterday. Sure it was 2160!

Yes it was 2160! There are not completed all branding on 2160!

If 1676 and 1679 transferred to Coventry and will easy to replace 4319 and 4322. CV will not get a more double decker but some need more single decker.


*Some of 4415-4424 has start again service on yesterday! Only Three buses still red stick is 4417,4422, and 4424 has move to bendibuses park line. Yesterday late night, I seen only 6 Bendi in park line with 4417,4422, and 4424. 4 Bendi has move to garage but there are enough space in the garage.

When 4218 has completed the repair and maybe going to Walsall garage for repaint for which one NXC or NXWM then return to our garage.

4912 on 24 just leaving city. 4896 is right behind it on 24 too.John

4905 also parked up on the 24 route opposite the school for the blind on Court Oak Road at 5pm, not in service and with hazard lights flashing. Enviro-fest on the 24 today.

Yeah the 59/60/24/90 are the routes which surplus E400's will be allocated to, according to a notice in the depot.

For only spare! Most even spare will going on the 60.

1864 unusually on the 11
1867 on the 18
1872 on the 16

managed to get pics of them all  ;) :D

Well done!  ;)

I believe 1604 has been withdrawn and I has last seen 1604 in first week of July! More likely, 1604 or 2153 will replace 1678?

I think they should operate the 14 on Volvo B7RLE's. I don't understand why they haven't done so already. The buses going into Chelmsley Wood look nice on those ;) (I do understand i am not taking notice of capacity)

I agree with you  ;)! 14 route should conversion Double decker to Single Decker. And make it frequency changes from Every 7-8min to Every 6min, and that means There will reduce anti-social behavior and chavs people can't smoking in single decker cuz Drivers can smelly expect some drivers have anosmia!   

Good Heavens 6013 where did you pluck that one from?

anosmia[ an-oz-mee-uh, -os- ]
noun Pathology
1. absence or loss of the sense of smell.

I salute you sir.

Nice Heaven! Who believe Jesus?


Anosmia means: People cannot smelly and feel taste.

I've heard 1678 is now at Walsall being repainted into Cov livery. WN are supposedly set to loose our Mercs, that will no doubt what B6s are replacing.

Nice to hear! I think 1678 replace 2153 or any of 4415-4424. 4415-4424 still out in service and red stick on windscreen say" Don't move the vehicle!"

I don't think all 10 of 4415-4424 will be off the road at the same time. Might be a replacement for 2153 if that is joining a WM garage, or an older O405N

8 of 4415-4424 in park and Two of 4415-4424 has no placed park in front garage but more likely in garage! Tomorrow, I will get picture of 4415-4424 in front park with red stick on windscreen. And will upload on this site.

I would think they will use them to replace older mercs. Plus it hasn't been stated that all WN mercs transferring will go to CV

No! Coventry garage won't get a more double decker! Last Monday, 1547,1548,1608, and 1612 still old livery and been new logo! That won't start withdrawn soon. You should find reason of up to 8 4415-4424 hasn't service on from 21st July till present! Yesterday, I saw 4422 has no show display because of maybe removed battery but last Monday, tuesday, wednesday,Thursday 4422 still show display say " 6 Little Health" but yesterday doesn't show more likely removed battery.
