what is going on with wn allocation. wasn't these e200s for the 81 27/a 28 and 25a/c? they seem to be on routes such as 2 and 59 etc. there are also so many single decks on double deck routes. is there a shortage of buses at the moment? also theres a rumour that more b6's are heading to wn to replace existing mercs to eliminate the lot. is there any truth on that?

I think the double decks are being used on the 79E's and ML1's temporarily till the Metro is going back to St Georges, cause there seem to be mostly double decks on the WN59 on sat and sun, and the rumour bout the B6's is probably true, otherwise WN could have a problem with capacity i reckon, but i could be wrong

1672 departed WN at 12:20, if that helps anyone who wants to search for 1672.

I'm told 1684 and 1686 are also longer at PL. Can anyone confirm?

mranon

i was told by a driver that there is a collection of mercs building up at bottom of yard, including 1684/6 in nxwm livery. its a shame 1672 couldnt be the last merc in service being as its in original livery etc. wonder what else will turn up at pl to see off remaining mercs, or will nxwm liveried ones see a bit longer

A legacy of when there also used to be CR (Cleveland Road) Garage in Wolverhampton. Which is still standing, not sure if it will be for much longer though with Tesco redevelopment plans for the area moving forward.

The Garage is in use as a car park and not actually on the Tesco site so it may not be affected
