How About Me and You Adam 404 both Set up a Forum called Compalince Fails .
I think you must both be mad if you think any bus company can achieve those standards all of the time.

Good luck and a very happy Christmas from the igo General

Apparently there was a Primo on the 424 today. Was asked by a friend if this was regular or not.

Normal Optare in for safety inspection

igo taking on the 53 Smiths Wood to Erdington in November with 4 branded Optares. New fares for NHS staff and visitors to Heartlands with these new fares extended to 168 and 28A services, both interworking services. Two extra early departures from Smiths Wood. Service to be operated from Elmdon with the 167/168 running's moving to Aston. Also at the same time service 22, Walsall Circular, operated by igo running from Wednesbury.

Don't say I never tell you anything

Some kind of minibus on the 96/99 today, only saw it from a distance from my window, think it was the Bluebird bodied VW Transporter.

EDIT: it was 7008, the Ducato, saw it again today, in igo livery now.
Not sure 7008 is a Ducato is it ?

They did a couple of weeks on the 10, so you have missed your chance for the time being
Tridents taken off the 10 due to low trees along the route and so far Amey have been unable to prune them back. Shame because some years ago this was always a double deck route

Is that across the whole route, or just across the Aldridge to Kingstanding bit?
All the route, drivers love it based on the old saying that bus driving would be a great job if it wasn't for passengers !!

I was shown how to start them by just touching the terminals in the correct order with anything metal when I was driving the Travel London Tridents. I've forgotton the combination now!
Thanks Tony, that's what they do now but bit of a bind driving round with a wood screw in your pocket and it is a big job to disable the equipment apparently

No Tony, that's the principle of TUPE. There are ways that dodgy employers can use to circumnavigate proceedings.
Have no fears he will be well looked after and no worse off and may well be better off. Certainly have a better vehicle to drive of that you can be assured

Horrible 05 plate solo on the 226...again! Haven't igo got anything decent than this pile of turd? Maybe a nice SR solo or a E200...some quality would be appreciated!

Come back diamond all is forgiven!!

Shame really, most passengers prefer to get there than what vehicle they sit on. IGO now also has 10 buses less than 2 years old including 3x15 plates, sure one of you guys can tell us in percentage terms of new vehicles in the fleet that compares with some of the competition
