4012 still on the 1 on the 2155 ex Dudley, should do the 2335 1E ex Dudley as well

P419 EJW

Just got off 4593 on 529. My God... Has the bus been re-decorated internally or what(?) The smell is soooooooooooooo (yes, that many o's, I'm not exaggerating) overpowering! The smell is like paint, probably gloss paint. Trying to get us high or feeling dizzy/faint? Passengers complained and they couldn't wait to get off the bus. I feel sorry for the driver having to put up with the horrid smell until his shift finishes.

Well it makes a change from the usual smell of skunk or stale booze on the 529 :D....The driver doesn't have to 'put up with it' and if the smell is as bad as you make out should it even be in service?

Drivers this week are talking about the 27 night service finishing. Is there any truth in this? Also what's happening to the 62?

What do you mean there maiden service on the 59? They are only used on the peak running boards and on all day 59/13 (Last 59 out) for the past week. The 59 is a Double Deck operated route (Well 99% of the buses on there are). I live on the 59 and i was on a jam packed Trident!  They will be on the 28/81 mostly

Think it was nothing more than humour meant by Chris's comment. Chill out Nathan

Don't worry Ash i wasn't snapping at him ;) Although it is true that are appearing on the 59 alot recently (I'd rather have a Spectra lol)

Anyway.....  A driver told me today that some B6's are coming to WN from WB? Any ideas anybody?

Well it would make sense if WB's B6's are in better condition than WN's Mercs, to get rid of even more Mercs to leave WN with just Enviros and B6's getting rid of a complete type

I would be happy at that news. Hopefully 534 568 591 and 680. Sadly 566 is gone otherwise that would do

I was trying to be humorous aha im always going through wolverhampton from willenhall to Stourbridge and always see an e200 on 59. Im still waiting for e200 to sneak onto the 529
