Vehicle Transfers

[The Real 4778]

So former Dundee Volvos might displace Volvos to Dundee.

Looks that way!  :)

I assume Stevo means ex Dundee 4300-4304

[Stevo]

Yes - seeing the recent move of 4304 to WA made me remember when they were at MS back in 2002 for Sutton Lines but went up to Dundee.

Weren't these buses new to Dundee? they're on Dundee registrations (ST02 ...) and were originally Tayside 180 - 184, I wasn't aware they spent any time in the WM before entering service up here.

[Trident 4609]

1839 now at Walsall (not out before anyone asks)

It is now. Left Wolverhampton within the last half an hour.

They never ran in the West Midlands, but were delivered down here complete with Sutton Lines branding

[Stevo]

If I remember right they had Birmingham regs but were given the Scots ones on transfer.

Yes, they were

BU51 RYH 4300
BU51 RYJ 4301
BU51 RYK 4302
BU51 RYM 4303
BU51 RYN 4304

[DavieDD2]

Yes, they were

BU51 RYH 4300
BU51 RYJ 4301
BU51 RYK 4302
BU51 RYM 4303
BU51 RYN 4304

That explains things, I hadn't realised that, thanks for the info.

[Tony]

2113 now at Wolverhampton

[Liberator9]

Didn't expect that one  :) I assume if more move to WN they'll replace the B6s.

[Tony]

Correct. Will replace remaining B6's. I'd imagine there will be 5 or 6 coming over on that basis.

Not true, because the route they are for is not currently operated by B6s

[Trident 4609]

Apologies Tony. I was given incorrect info then.....

[winston]

I'm thinking that 2105-2118 will now be split between PE & WN, with 2120 possibly going to BC
