27 27a 41 withdrawn
New 22 From Pool Meadow - Stonehouse estate via old X16 route till then Yarningdale Rd then down St James Lane, then left and as 41 to terminate.
22a variant from Pool Meadow - Middlemarch via above 22 route till St JJames Lane then Left turn onto London Rd then as 27a to middlemarch. Only 2 buses will be need for operation as during peak times both buses would be in operation as 22a and one stays out in the daytime as 22.
I have came up with a timetable which I will post in the morning.

1930 - Finally got on this one - along with 1929, I have managed to ride all YW's original Scanias now.
Excellent bus, had it on the 27 today. Suspension very smooth and rides out the road imperfections excellently. Virtually no rattles. Engine and gearbox smooth running. Externally and internally in perfect condition - well done YW and Scania.  10/10

1929, 1910 - 9/10 for both of them. Good suspension, few rattles and smooth running. That's about all there is to say, but in this case that's a good thing.

4089 - 49 (YW) Good for its age - Whiny ZF gearbox, but smooth. Suspension fine and few rattles. Interior and Exterior in good condition.  8/10

4674 - 11C  Nice Gemini - engine and gearbox smooth riding. Suspension was excellent - as most of the AG Geminis are. Rattles are minimal, and being a 2012 refurb, is well presented. Paintwork is vivid red and NX Grey Dot scheme inside, which is smart. Be good to have all the Gems in this refurbed state. 9/10

The same can't be said for CV Gemini 4695! Terrible interior that is a mess and as for the exterior... 4695 is easy to notice with its big large fleet number at the front!

Still, why advertise X17 and X19 when X19 now only runs at peak times not even serving Leamington or Warwick,
Shouldn't branding be revised to changes?

I notice that stagecoach never modify there branding whens changes occur.
Examples of this are 86 and X17 / X19
Why do they not advertise extensions?

X16 is being replaced by route 27 by WMSNT aka igo.
However route 41 is not mentioned. You'd think it would be replaced by 27.
However the 41 timetable is gone from the WMSNT website.

1558 and 1625 are both withdrawn. However, it looks like another bus that I have not identified has since been withdrawn.
Does anyone know what fleet number this is if of course it is withdrawn!
