I thought (probably wrongly) that WB were getting 801 -7 and PN were getting some short wheel base E200s for the 121?
were having lwb and swb e200s

Yes SWB for 121, long for extended 244

Are the B7RLE's similar to the Gemini's in cab layout if they are then WB Drivers wouldn't need type training.

Will the B7RLE be limited to the 120A or will they appear on other WB Routes.

No B7RLEs at WB

I'd guess B7RLEs go from PE-WA, and then Scanias from WA-WB?

Only Scanias can fit on the Darlaston & Alumwell routes can they, unless a similar size vehicle (s) can be transferred in surely?

Any spare E200s knocking about?

Isn't it just the 17** B7RLEs that don't fit? The 2011/2/3 B7RLEs don't have that pod on the roof do they?

Judging by some photos on the main site, the Mk2 B7RLEs do also have pods although they seem to be smaller. Their is an overhead photo of 2010 and it shows 4 distinct "pods".

Is this a height issue ? when it was mentioned B7RLE's don't fit, I was of the belief it was due to tight turning .

I don't remember any noticeable difference on the turning circle on the B7RLE and Scania. It's the roof pods as far I'm aware that are the issue.

The turning circle on the Mk1 & Mk2 Eclipse should be the same as it's the same chassis.

Is the PVR for the 121 3? I'm thinking 2106-2111 to Walsall and same amount of Scanias to West Bromwich? Then 801 -805 to PN with 806-809 to WB to replace 753-6 to PN?

It was only a guess @karl724223 haha maybe instead of the e200 perhaps the 244 could go platinum to quell @Trident 4194 moaning about the 244
