Is 4787 still in service at Wednesfield?

Don't think so, the only deckers now are 4796(or 98)/4797/4800/4801 and 4854 parked up, assumedly withdrawn

See above your post. It has already been stated that 4787 is at Telford, And with 4714/5/6 in reserve I suspect you're right.

Thurmaston's DAF Commander 3706 is understood to have moved onto to Wednesfield today with 4789 coming back this way.

DAF Lowlander 4718 is now back at South Wigston on the 44a today (have anymore lowlanders departed Wednesfield back to SW?)

Hope its in a better state than 3705 which came to cannock from there! It wasn't the best to say the least!  Although 3707 was a lot better,  refurbished and doesn't sound completely s#####d

Try the 4A, 9, 19, 29 and 35, those are your best chances, maybe the 10 and 530 but its pot luck trying to find the ones you need eg I need 3706 3732 3802 3803 but sods law says I wouldn't get all four in a day unless I had help and luck

I don't understand why theyre being used on the lichfield services so much. Hardly a busy route

And 4719 is still hanging in there on the 530.


Also 4786 left Wolverhampton full upstairs and downstairs on the 10 this afternoon. Goes to show double deckers are warranted on that route.

Bob

Definitely not warranted on the 530 tho.

Nothing to do with the Enviros being taken off due to overcrowding then Bob?

Bob

What trips are overcrowded?  The peak one going into lichfield in a morning ( X35 at muckley corner) never has anyone on? I see it going to work.  Never seen many on in the day either.  Unless it suddenly gets rammed going toward walsall? Yet after a point its competing with nx routes

Now in exile in Oxfordshire....
