Hello Everyone,

With an extra 4 pages this month - Here is the July edition of the Coventry Bus Magazine.
It is full of information about buses in and around Coventry.
I hope you enjoy reading it.

541 back axle (Diff??) is sounding like a right bag of nails. Guess it will be a workshop job soon?

It was still going today on the 585.

Meanwhile, 568 has been repainted so the faded paint is no more! (List of buses which haven't been painted yet is on the Usual Allocations Spreadsheet)

I have updated the spreadsheet again this morning. It seems when I checked the links to the timetables that the De Courcey website is down. In the meantime, timetable links on the spreadsheet are to the Traveline website. However, many of the School Services are not on here.

The De Courcey website is back now so I will change the links back to the De Courcey website. The Spreadsheet should then be up to date with modified PVR's and updated MCV repaint list.

Free WIFI on Signature & 4/4H buses.

I believe this was mentioned in the Johnson's thread.

Stagecoach have released the timetable early and with it being ran by Stagecoach in Oxfordshire rather than Warwickshire, I am guessing that Banbury Garage will be running the route.
