Yes 4364/5 should have transferred to YW. There should be two more in and two more out from BC to various garages to watch out for

I'm guessing 2121 could be one of those? @Tony

I'm thinking 2 x Volvo B7TL/ALX400's from WB to PB (4291), two ex Dundee Omnilink from PB to AG, 2121/2122 AG to BC & two further Tridents out of BC?

If NX are going to keep numbers together then I assume 4366 and 4367 may move out? Although 4368 with its special mods would remain at BC, although I  that would make sense considering its special CCTV equipment etc.


It would have made more sense to leave 4191 and 4192 at BC instead of transferring them to YW. Then 4365, 4366, 4367, 4368 could have transferred to YW to keep numbers in sequence (so follows onto YW 4369). Although 4364 would be the odd one out at BC.

4325 and 4326 are odd ones out number sequence wise at BC at the moment so they could be the other 2 candidates to leave.

Trident 4609

4325 and 4326 could join 4323/4 at WN to replace a couple of Mercs maybe?

Tony

Has nobody noticed the latest transfer in to YW standing out like a sore thumb on the 2?

I saw an LED Trident on there early this morning - if it was not 4390 then it would have been 4368 - at a guess?

Much more out of place on the 2 than that

Liberator9

Wow - another guess then - new Enviro 400 getting lost or a long shot of a Scania double decker from PB?

I'm thinking is could be something from WA which is now receiving Gemini's? Possibly a leather seated E400?

Liberator9

Please be the leather seated Enviro 400  ;)

I'm happy with 1898 - is this just a one off move or are more Scanias on the way over to YW? (to replace Liberators)

Hi , I have a quick question for you bus drivers at Yardley Wood, can you advise where the pits are located within the depot?

The pits are located at the bottom of the depot & stretch across it's width, Tony has a photo somewhere taken from the stair prior to the open day last year.

The pits are located at the far north end of the garage - you can see them from the various videos from the YW open day last year.

on this video, at 7:32 you can see the pits
