I dont think so, the bus service only started when more and more people started to get employed (From September) for the Christmas peak time and with most gone and the PVR for the services reduced again its time for it to stop.

Being an employee I've heard that this year more people are coming from the West Midlands area so if the loadings are high enough, NX will continue to run it as their is no profit for them to run buses on a loss. 1 driver stated the 16th last week and this has been confirmed by agency staff at Amazon.

Their are 2 train stations in Rugeley (Rugeley Town & Trent Valley) both are give or take 30 minute walks

I do hope non of your colleagues plan to freeload on the trains on a permanent basis, their conduct over these last couple of months has been an utter disgrace to Amazon and a total nuisance to law abiding and fare paying passengers who in many cases have been unable to travel. Amazon appear to be completely disinterested in the problem.

Thankfully many of them have been struck off, when a bus arrives, people barge of like dogs and some have been uncomfortable in the environment and I can only praise the drivers who have to put up with. I've seen crap such as not getting back so the driver can pull up onto the pavement and people using invalid tickets. The A51 seems OK as it arrives before the end of shift so people can load on slowly.

No, what Tony's posted is correct, 4265 was already at WA prior to moving back to WB

See fleetlist. 4031 was at AG before it moved to WA.

My apologies, I mis-read the comment as 4265 being at AG !

Using Tony's earlier garage allocation list style.

Walsall should now look like this:
6 E200 (854-60)
47 Scania (1837-62/78-97; 1918)
24 B7RLE (1750-73)
12 President (4024/7/31-3/5/65/8/72-3/6/105)
18 Trident (4125-8/31-32; 4305-9; 4326-32)
20 B7/ALX (4258-64/92-304)
20 E400 (4733-7/76; 4857-70)
40 E400MMC (6719-58)
___
187

And Acocks Green this:
50 E200MMC (2201-50)
27 Presidents (4023/9/4/7-40/58-64/66-7/69-71/8/80-2/99-102)
72 Gemini (4507-19/21-34; 4635-79)
___
149

@paulb1973 - the WA allocation is missing the 6 x NX liveried Levante

(Yes, not forgetting the six NX coaches - although I was aware of them)

Presumably each garage which is having refurbs (PB, BC, WB currently) have a number of vehicles as paint float to allow 4 or 5 buses at a time to be dealt with?

Yes, that will be correct

4076 Walsall-Dundee
Won't make the trip 'up North' for a couple of weeks as it is going to be tidied up first. It won't run from Walsall garage again though

Is this as cover to allow our repaints to start again Tony?
