These buses were crap good riddance to them. Jerky slow nails.

Quote from: Straightlines on June 30, 2023, 09:21:42 AMI wouldn't call an operator that just received a 'Formal Warning' from the Office of the Traffic Commissioner (N&P 2610) as one who has 'clearly upped their game' !!




Formal warning for what? The investment that diamond have put into vehicles in recent years is great to see. They are withdrawing 09 plate vehicles - only 14 years old and replacing them with streetlites and other euro 6 vehicles. 1 dart still in operation now. Yes the drivers I would say have got worse but the fleet side of things is excellent

Quote from: winston on June 24, 2023, 08:54:13 PMI very much doubt those Volvo's have had new engines
Im sure 30411 had something done to it?

Either way it's good to see not being withdrawn. And put to good use in Kidderminster.

Not a good day at KR. 30051 broke down on the 142A and got replaced by 20052. 20052 was then seen broken down in Stourbridge bus Station with 30051 replacing it. 

3222* broke down on 125. 30709 replaced it for half a trip before 30410 took over for the remaining of the day. Those B7RLES really can shift now - much better than when they were at tividale crawling up hills. Guessing it's due to the new engines which I think they had?

Quote from: Trident 4194 on May 06, 2023, 12:34:43 PMUnsure why 1888 is running up to 8 minutes early on the 4H. Makes a change from the usual late running I suppose. Left West Brom 7 early
Any reason for this @Tony noticed on his return trip to Walsall other than leaving Hayley green 4 minutes early he kept ontime to walsall
