...and today!

I think 6145 was the one I saw this morning in Sparkbrook.

Ronnoc · January 04, 2016, 07:24:31 PM

6146 was the one.

Thanks for that, and I realise Tridents are used on there, but 8 in one day is fairly unusual though, usually 3-4 on there.

Which 72E journey is operated by YW from Solihull around 4-5pm?

John · January 10, 2016, 11:44:49 AM

6148 is on the 6

And 6124

Sorry for probably enquiring for what is the 1000th time, but how's 1926 doing? Last time I heard it was up at Carlyle.

I'm still curious to know what is happening to Gemini 4520; I assume under repair, but not necessarily to be a full service bus thereafter. Talk has been of it becoming a Driver Trainer - but I don't think Tony has confirmed [or denied!] that yet.

As I have mentioned twice before, this is a daily working on a 50 running board

When I was type training at AG, we went down to Stratford upon Avon in a Plaxton. 50 odd mile round trip I think it was. They were doing a Private Hire in Stratford at the time, which I think Tony took part in. 6147/8 were the vehicles I believe. Anyway, we were doing the risk assessment for it and type training at the same time, which was fun.

4698 sighted at PB yesterday (where it belongs)!

It is getting accident repairs. I did notice it last night, along with future trainer 1408 having repaneling work

Ronnoc · February 06, 2016, 04:03:33 PM

Somebody has told me that 4698 has returned. Has it?
