Eminence have also acquired ex Kevs YX61 GAO.

Eminence Travel have bought brand new Toursimos BF73 CFD and CFE.

6732, 6711 and 6758 all been on WAX15 today.

They own and i believe are trying to sell
NK56 EPA
NK56 EPC
NK56 EPJ
NK56 EPU

I did hear something about the engine out of NK56 EPU being used for GX53 MWJ, although I'm not 100% sure about that. To be fair I've not really seen any of the ex Thandi Darts out on rail recently since they've acquired some ex London Enviro 200's.

The Enviro 200's they've acquired are...

SK07 DZN
LK08 DWW
YX61 FYM

36949 and 36215 are out on rail replacement between Rugby and Northampton.

10542, 11666, 15939 and 15845 are on rail replacement between Northampton and Milton Keynes Central.

Commander 187 is on the 36 this afternoon.

Eminence Enviro 200 YX61 FYE is currently on loan to Birmingham Airport.

15677 has done the full 77 route today from Leamington Spa to Stratford-upon-Avon and back. First time I think a decker has done the full route since Johnsons ran the route (not counting the Kineton and Gaydon short journeys).

WN4842 is on WA51.

4570 is on WA997.

Solus Coaches have started running the 62 from today which I'm told is Leamington Spa to Myton Green. Can't find any information about the service online though. Seen a photo of YUI 2774 on it though still branded for Gatwick Hoppa.

Timetable for the new 62 service...

4570 on WA937/935/934.

Noted on the 71 today are YUI 2776 and YX58 HVB.

I've seen a photo of YUI 2774 out too, which I'm guessing YX58 HVB has replaced at some point in the day.

Its probably gonna get rewrapped as soon as possible because wraps do not do the paintwork any favours tbh like 4799 which has lots of bare metal

(4801 if anyone hasnt seen it https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/553651820237684758/1162551523302195240/20231013_221328.jpg ) not my image

That's my photo which seems to have caused quite a stir! I understand that from a presentation view, it doesn't look great. But I do agree that any bus is better than no bus...

It's also not like I haven't seen worse. I've seen buses running around with bare metal panels, panels taped on etc. As bad as it sounds, it's just part of the parcel of the industry. Things happen and sometimes you have to send something out that doesn't look the best. Just as long as it's legal and doesn't have any PG9's, then it's fine.
