It hasn't transferred yet, it is still on the 4 today, hence why I didn't post about it here.

Is 1949 a transfer to Walsall or just a loan.

Yet another Scania has made its way to WB - 1838, to be dumped on the 12s/13s where they do not belong. I guess whoever allocates them wants us drivers to continue to always leave Colmore Row with a standing load and skip past the many people waiting at the next few stops

Yeah that's true scanias and E200s are way too small for the 12s and 13s, one thing I'm confused about is why not keep 1838 and send 1848 back instead which is branded for a walsall route.

Maybe WB will get a double decker boost with the other five 477x's when YW eventually has the power to cascade....I've been wrong many times before though.

Tony has said that 1838 hasn't transferred, so presumably it is just 'on loan'.

With Perry Barr's delivery of new electric double decks almost complete, and Yardley Wood's to resume soon, there will be a number of OmniLinks that become 'surplus to requirements', however it wouldn't surprise me if there is some 'rotation', with older examples in worse condition at WA and WB being withdrawn and replaced with better condition ones from PB and YW.

But at this time, the priority is to remove non-Euro6 vehicles. All will become clear in the next few weeks!
My locals:
2 - Birmingham to Maypole | 3 - Birmingham to Yardley Wood
11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath

Yeah I know 1838 is a loan but my point was why font west brom keep 1838 which is a unbranded one and walsall have 1848 back which is a 4 branded saving west brom a job of unbranded and faffing around with 1848 I'm not saying Tony's doing his job wrong, this is just my opinion Tony knows what's what so it's upto him
