It's been said it's going to be the new Health Buzz replacing 1687 whenever that will be...

Tony, just checking my own notes (which are based on yours anyway!) with your update.

At AG I've got 4291 (rather than 4292) - is that right?
At PN I think it should read 4748-62. I had 2093 here, but it looks like it has returned to WN
At BC I had 767 still there - but I presume that isn't the case!
At YW I've got 4383/86-87/89 etc
I had 4384 withdrawn, but it looks like it's been sold
I also had BT57 ENJ & KM66 XSX in the training fleet - they now gone

John Stait

Thanks for this Tony
Just one query at YW....I have 4386 still in service rather than 4385, is that a typo or have I got it wrong?
Thanks again
John

Tony

Thanks for the notes. There are 3 typos which have now been corrected
AG4291 (not 4292)
YW4386 (not 4385)
PN 4748-62(not 63)

I've altered my notes just slightly to match the list above. In fact I've got each garage listed as below - a listing style which Tony himself used a while back:

This is Coventry:
[127 DD/50 SD]
10 E400EV (E020-29)
14 E200 (831-33/38/40-44/71-75)
36 B7RLE (2141-50/52-77)
18 Trident (4370/4403/6-14; 4450-54/64; 4576)
8 B7/ALX (4415-20/23-24)
17 B7/Gemini (4660-75/78)
54 E400 (4763-76; 4830-42/81-94; 4983-95)
20 E400MMC (6951-67; 7539-41)
___
177

I think that's a total of 1533 vehicles at the 9 major depots.

Am I right in saying C081 is coach LK53 KWA, although I'm not sure what the reg of C050 is.

What is BX54ZWV please?
Iveco - As I understand, it was used by the training school to asses trainee drivers' abilities to manoeuvre larger vehicles

Cheers @B61 ANDREW - I was 95% sure it was an ex NXWM bus given the reworked headlights.
