Wolverhampton services today have been well and truely fu*ked.

Until about 12 we were ok slight issues here and there but not much. At 12 IT KICKED OFF!

We had about 4 126's running in convoy of which 3 reliefs weren't out. The 59 was sodded all afternoon one bus went back to garage to be replaced by 4006 which was then swapped without making it into service, then to be swapped by another trident which again didn't make it into service before eventually a bus made it out back onto 59/08.

The 126's had been running in convoy practically all afternoon making the passengers very frustrated.

Overall after doing a day inspecting i'm shattered.

@Nathan can give more info on the day as I was very much in work mode and didn't take much note.

On a slightly more anorak style note.

Has 2027 had a new rear end or just a rear end repaint minus fleetname on the rear window which it had not long ago?

When did 2029 get Metrobus style fleetnumbers on the rear?

What happened to 2062 for it to gain a small rectangular metal strip on the ceiling?

mranon

2027 has had rear end damage repaired after meeting a lampost in waterloo rd a couple of months ago. (window smashed hence probably not got round to sticking the logo on)

2029 had those fleetnumbers since it was repaired after 4007 ended up in the back of it at wolves bus station at least couple of years ago!

2062 has the metal plate covering damage to ceiling - again ages ago.

on another point 2028 looks very smart at the rear end - looks like thats had a respray with a couple of drivers side panels.

ooops better keep the anorak in me at bay!!!

Fair few Eclipses on the Northwood Park circle today. This becoming the norm? In fact is this what the transfer of a few more to Wolves is for?
Now in exile in Oxfordshire....

With less B6's and Spectra's operating, the 11/32/33 are a mixed bag in terms of allocation. B6's, Spectra's, Tridents and B7RLE's are all regulars.

In response to Kevin's comment about 841 appearing on the 54/154, I'd imagine these services are in a complete mess today with the closure of the M6 between J13-J12. It's possible additional buses are being used to aid the services, hence unusual workings.

1 B7 (2062) on 33
2 or 3 B7's on the 11

Unless ive missed something, no Spectras are out.
