Watch this space for interesting news next week

Primo
KX06LXP   KX06HMC  KX07KNW   plus the 4 that are been got ready for services  & what's the missing one & does it run on 147

KX57FML which is awaiting mot at the moment but will be used on 147 soon as

Did you get the stuff to reprogram the screens on the Primos yet?

Yes thanks all done. Not as hard or as expensive as we thought it would be

There is only 1 bus on each route but we have 8 Primos and 1 Solo so who knows where next ?

Sorry Solo, not at the moment

There will always be a Primo on 147 but we are alternating them to give them a rest

We are taking our time with these vehicles. Hopefully in the summer two will be re-built and the other two used as spares for the remainder of the fleet. All 4 have good working engines, gear boxes and angle drives as you would expect coming from EYMS. We also purchased all EYMS Primo spares from their parts department and therefore anyone looking for parts we may be able to help.

YJ62 now back from MOT and mini Solo returned to Dawsons. Likely that YJ62 will operate 355 and one of 4 Primo's will operate 147, presently this is KX08HMC. Coach fleet all ready for the return of the little angels next week.

Thanks, I had not thought of doing that so good advice

Small Solo on loan as the larger one away to Dawsons for mot, back next week.

We have some Mobitec icu400 units with large card inputs instead of usb. Anyone know what card I need and where we can get one from

2 minutes at Halesowen but 24 at Bromsgrove Station and yes, we have acquired 4xPrimo from EYMS which they had owned from new. 147 went well today with Mr Scerri at the helm.
2 drivers needed if anyone interested at hourly rate in excess of any local operators.

The route will now go in and out by the same route thus serving Oakalls both ways which seems sensible to me.
According to data picked up by the present operator the average load on the early morning journeys is less than 1 on average so the Council felt it not economical to run

Due to a clerical problem the wrong timetable was issued. This is now corrected and a new registration sent to T/C. Sorry to confuse but new timetable attached

Every 2 hours yes, timetable attached

The route into Halesowen is to be direct from Romsley into the bus station. This is on direction of the awarding body who I suppose have used the saved time in order to enable the extension into Bromsgrove Rail Station. Do not think this will seen as a disadvantage by regular users who will arrive earlier into the Town Centre, only time will tell.
