Maybe a route that's uses b5lh like the 45/7 (presumably) ?

[Tony]

Nothing more sinister than BC has a nine vehicle PVR increase on Monday due to the next step up in frequency after the driver shortage reductions but drops again when it loses the X1, so using Coventry spare buses until then

We are all type trained on the B5LH at BC and the B7s have the same control layout so in theory they could be used on any service out of BC

[Tony]

Most likely routes to see them on will be the 94/95 & 97 but they won't track on bustimes

Single deckers on the busy city routes then? 
Would loaning some 61XX to BC not make sense then the 21XX can be used on the non city routes 1, 73 etc.

I agree that makes more sense as 97 has full standing load on a double obviously Tony doesn't know what's best for passengers

No, Acocks Green has way more single decks than ideal as well, and they would end up out all day, not just peaks.

Both the 1 & 73 already regularly get single decks anyway

[Owen]

Well things have to be proportioned out a little bit, cov only has single decks to loan. Bc doesn't have electrical charging points, so they can't loan electrics. You'd moan if wb loaned an e400 to bc and the Volvo go to Wb

And you'd clog up the forum if it was an 87 branded

One of the rules of this forum is no personal attacks, You are already on a final warning so will now be removed from the forum

[cris 99]

Of course Liam Williams you know what's best for the public. Tony has been working on the buses as long as you've been alive so I suggest you keep your idiotic opinions t yourself. Who do you think decides what buses get allocated to what depot? Didn't hear you complaining when west Bromwich got platinums from Coventry? Sorry rant over
