4173 to PN? Or is this just a loan. Currently on the 246.

Transfer

Pretty sure I saw 4242 on Warwick Road in Acocks Green village running NIS (to Solihull presumably).

Is this a transfer to AG? I'm not up to date on ALX400 allocations. Is this one already at AG lmao?

4129; 4192 BC - CV
4241 PB-WB

Tomorrow should be the last day of Euro 3 Tridents at BC. They intend using any left there on the cricket extras to Edgbaston

Tony has said that including those above, there are around 100 transfers which will take place this week.

Thanks @2206

I'm expecting all these extra ALX400s to be dumped onto the Outer Circle, like how the Presidents where a few years ago.

[Walsall1955]

I believe the 79 is having an enhanced service with passengers directed onto it.

Some details are now on NXWM website (service changes page)
http://nxbus.co.uk/west-midlands/information/service-changes/black-country-service-changes-from-sunday-11th-june-
are as follows:

Service 79 - Wolverhampton - West Bromwich

Extra journeys will operate between Wolverhampton and Bilston due to the closure of the Metro line between Priestfield and Wolverhampton City Centre.

Between Wolverhampton and Bilston, the frequency of buses will be increased to up to every 5 minutes on weekday daytimes and every 15 minutes on Sunday daytimes.

The frequency of evening buses will be increased to every 15 minutes on all days of the week.
Revised timetable to reflect the above changes.

I think you may be right, with Geminis (perhaps Crimson ones?) being used on the 72.

Either way, wasn't the introduction of the E200s on the 71/72 part of some 'quality partnership' agreement with Centro/TfWM?

Does that mean the 72 will be down graded to those Gem things I guess.

Yes. Either downgraded to Gemini, or a mixture of B7TL ALX400 and Gemini probably.
The 71 will be downgraded to Omnilinks as well.

Also on that link the states the 154 is the 54A but that must be a typo

Lmao. It brings a bit of variety to the route I suppose. Nothing can beat Geminis though. Favourite vehicle type in the fleet for me lol

I might need to go back to NX just to drive these ALX400s!
