Can I ask why the NEW WN E200's doors squeak like there's no tomorrow when opening yet from what I remember PNs don't/hardly squeak at all.


Just to Add, The next WN open day is Sunday July 26 2015, it was confirmed yesterday.
Do you need tickets to go there or can you walk in and what time is it thanks

Would say it is a little early to be asking that Tara, am sure more details will become available nearer the day.
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

I was in the West Midlands yesterday and spent a couple of hours at Wolverhampton Bus Station before moving on to Walsall ( 529 ) and West Bromwich ( 4H ) before heading back on a 79 to Wolverhampton and train to Crewe.

While at Wolverhampton I saw 13 of the E200s

27    842 843 846 850
28    841 849 851
54    853 854
81    840 844 845 847

Presumably 848 or 852 was the fifth bus on the 81. can anyone tell me which was this fifth bus and confirm that the other was depot bound all day.

Many thanks

Tony would be the best one to answer that or Nathan as he sometimes knows what's allocated

Other Walsall Tony

Did I imagine it, or did I see an E200, 853 or 854, named 'Amy'?

You maybe getting confused with 854 which is 'Anya'

In other news, an unbranded E400H (5404 i think) has just gone down Wolverhampton Ring Rd  past bus station towards Bilston St island with an Engineer driving. I'm hazarding a guess thats its going to replace something on the 1 but there is always a chance that it could be going to replace something on another route?

Chances of a Spectra on the 126 on any day are highly unlikely.

Should be 0% really, especially with the schools being off so extra buses should be available.

Contact the same person who authorised the original visit. Do you know the strange thing, a member who got banned from this forum also missed a visit to Wolverhampton garage because they were ill about five months ago, perhaps I ought to ask WN who it was that missed a visit five months ago, we might then know the real identity of Tara!

Why not just come to Wolverhampton?

I noticed that Santa was driving a B7RLE on the 11 on Monday afternoon. :D
We'll get rid of your bus to Wolves and replace it with one to Walsall instead.......... Oh the joy of a Network Review. -_-

I had a few rides yesterday and was pleased to get 4004 on the 82 from Dudley to Bilston, then later 4011 on the 529 from Willenhall to Walsall. Do the Spectras work these routes much?
