Vehicle Transfers

[Tony]

Even with 4442-43 at BC, the outgoing 2133 leaves B'ham Central with less than 200 vehicles [excluding the JLR coaches]

11 B7RLE (2126-27/34-42)
61 Trident (4148/66/72/76-77/79/83r/85; 4442-49/55-74; 4610-34)
41 E400 (4871-80/95-913/38-49)
18 B5H (5501-18)
68 E400MMC (6825-92)

Total 199

Admittedly the situation seems to be fluid at the moment and those 41xx allocations may be out of date.

Why you discounting the coaches though. There's only so much room in a garage

[BN]

Yes.

Not sure on what 1911 is doing at WB though.

4326; 4327 & 4328 all now parked up at Walsall ready to go to PN

I've just driven 2124 BC-WA. 2133 will be going tonight

1911 is the replacement for 1935.

I've been excluding the coaches [on my own notes] - but if you include BC's allocation, that takes the total to over 200 (do Walsall's 90-95/116/135 see JLR work - or do they do other things?).

WA's coaches do proper NX coach diagrams, mostly those that Whittle's operated before being closed down.

Hopefully only temporarily

Hopefully only temporarily

What's wrong with 1935 if you don't mind me asking??

Right you are! I don't know much about the JLR contracts - some seem to be internal circuits (at the Gaydon site I assume) while other journeys I presume involve transporting staff from the Coventry/B'ham area to/from that factory. There is a Whitley (Coventry) site too.

You are right though, the NXWM bus fleet is shrinking.

I may be wrong but I'm sure I caught 1935 on the 27 on Saturday afternoon, didn't seem anything wrong with it at the time.

It was also out yesterday.

The BC bus fleet and perhaps at YW too, have taken a bit of a dip. Perry Barr doesn't seem as high as it was. If anything Coventry has risen - but there may be some more 42xx withdrawals to come.

The whole point of the South Birmingham review, wasn't it?

[I love Walsall buses]

861; 862 WN-WA

Will these be back ups for the 70/A and the 36 or completely different
