QuoteThey don't transfer to Tamworth Tamworth is part of tividale
Tamworth is an outstation so is classed as depot... so buses can transfer to Tamworth. They probably go back to tividale for major maintenance.

QuoteIt's probably been asked before on here but with 1860 which is currently at West Brom is that a permanent transfer or a long term / indef loan?

Because I've just looked on bustimes and it appears West Brom have had it since January if that's a loan then it's an awfully long time to have a loan vehicle. Could anyone clarify I'm just curious
Long term loan

QuoteAny idea if 4978 due to go to Wolverhampton
Tony has said several times before no advance warnings of transfers. With Coventry getting more charging points Tony has said on FB that diesel double deckers will be gone from CV within next few weeks.

Just an idea for raising a bit of money for charity, could some of the number plates on withdrawn buses that are going to scrap be sold on the day? @BN @karl724223

QuoteReturned to Brum for the first time in 3 years (by the way, what's going on in Digbeth? Looks virtually unrecognisable now?) And I noticed that 1795 has a weird camera thingy on the rear. Anyone know what it is?
Digbeth is getting the metro, 1795 has cameras looking at the condition of the road I believe.

QuoteThey are not planned to be, they are for London -Crewe & Birmingham. Class 350 are staying on Walsalls
I thought the edited order for more 3 car 730s was to make all west midlands local services 730s to release all 350s currently used?

When the new Perry Barr depot was built, were electric points put in ready for electric vehicles at some point?
