20027 on X31 and 30163 on X30 in Coventry this afternoon

Coventry 13 Route. After 6.30pm this week the Binley Rd is closed at the fire station for major resurfacing. 13 is diverted along Clifford Bridge Rd and gets back on route at Burns Rd. NX Cov should consider making something like this permanent. Perhaps rejoining Binley Rd at the fire station? At the moment NX Cov no longer serve CB Rd since the 16 journey was shortened.

Had a ride on 30167 on the X30.
It seemed well underpowered and took ages to build up road speed.
Painfull crawl up to the ring road - felt like it could have been quicker to walk!

Shock of the day! The proposed service has been withdrawn before it has even started!!!

X68 will continue to operate at its current timetable between Cubbington and Coventry.

It was even on Traveline...

Could there be another operator for the Coventry section waiting in the wings?

AE54 MVX (549) down at the Meadow this morning with new coat of yellow paint.

30163 on X30 seemed to be parked up near the Council House in Coventry late this afternoon?

2104 features and some poser hanging out the cab window

Did anyone see the two Megabus coaches parked up all day in Victoria Square on a sales pitch?

YY65 VXN (54271)
YJ16 EJO (fleet no not found)

Some services may be avoiding the Hales St stop by going through Bishop St to get onto the flyover whilst Cox St is shut (for 9 wks)

Waited a while for the 86 in Coventry Hales St today at stop HS1 as marked on the flag.
Didnt know the 86 now picks up from Sainsburys Trinity St stop TS2. Doohhh!

Come on Centro, keep up with the bucket load of changes that are happening!

30160 / 30161 seen on the X30 in Coventry today (correct thread hopefully - Redditch operated route?)

Yes that's the one, so the bus is either still awaiting painting or perhaps it is a second replacement bumper?

YY15 NJJ seen on the 87 down at the Meadow this afternoon.

Fleet no 106 on the 26 at Stoke Aldermoor today. New unpainted front bumper kerbside section visible. Must have pranged the original?
