NX Usual Allocations Google Sheet

For the benefit of anyone who wants to check if something they've spotted can be classed as 'noteworthy' or not, there is a Google Spreadsheet I have created, which lists the usual vehicle type(s) used on any given route, as well as other common usages of vehicle on that route.

If you spot a vehicle type listed in either column, then that is not noteworthy. Please only report vehicle sightings if they are not listed as 'usual' or 'commonly used' as that will save a lot of pointless discussion/arguments.

As vehicles get cascaded or new vehicles introduced, the list can become out-dated, so if you spot anything that may be incorrect, please report it by replying to this topic. If someone else can verify your claim, then I will make the amendments accordingly when I get chance to.

Thanks all!




The list is also now viewable on a dedicated page on my WMBU website:
https://wmbu.org.uk/enthusiasts/nx-bus-usual-allocations/

There's a handy Search box on that page, so you can easily and quickly find any service you want, rather than scrolling through the list above.




If you notice any errors or anything that needs amending, please reply to this topic with as much detail as you can, and I will make any amendments when I get the opportunity.

While I don't have the luxury of time to travel around the region to verify any changes that need to be made, I am able to at least refer to BusTimes now to look through vehicle histories. But please, unless you notice a change for yourself on a route or routes that you regularly use yourself or are familiar with, I don't need others trawling through BusTimes to look for things to be updated.

Just because you've "seen xxx bus a few times now", don't just assume that it is 'usual', there could of course be 'operational reasons' for this.

Replies to this thread will be removed once actioned, to keep the topic clean, and to ensure I don't miss anything.

No 'general chit-chat' please, use the appropriate garage thread for that.
