I think all of the YW Enviro's are going, and maybe the last 5 from Perry Barr to keep the block allocations together. Don't know if that means 5 48**'s will go to Perry Barr. Or will Yardley wood have all 30 and lose 5 other buses. We will have to wait and see.

Don't think its for a few months yet, untill after the Metro is reopened.

With some of the tridents going will the 59 still see tridents or will it become fully spectra operated.

If its going to be spectra operated expect the 59 not to turn up daily with the questionable reliability of them.  A couple of my mates hate them they always have some sort of fault or overheat.

Why would these moves affect where the Spectras are used? The 1 which is generally all trident operated is getting new buses and the tridents that are currently used are moving on

More transfers on the way, 9th march 1543 and 1545 from WN to PN for extra 53/289 workings.

5510, 5511, 5512, 5513 should be out and about by the 8th March.

Seems a strange transfer, surely the buses should come from WB?
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

The rest that are required might do and will leave WB to further withdraw some more vehicles that are still in Travel West Midlands livery and have not been refurbished, but do agree I assumed the buses would come from WB and not WN.

Looks as though NX are moving allocations around with the introduction of the Hybrids / cascading of the Tridents. Surely 21 x Tridents will no longer be leaving WN?

Sorry but what is being transferred to Pensnett and when?

The boards WB currently operate on routes 53 & 289 are moving permanently to Pensnett from 10th March

There was also suggestions that WB may be loosing the 405 back to Walsall as well

Thats was what i was thinking, also i thought that they were going to start to withdraw more of the R and S reg Mercs, so would have thought it would have been better to withdraw 1543 & 1545!

Exactly, its seems NXWM doesn't know what's happening until it happens..... it seems to change on a daily basis

Hopefully the 2 other Mercs Pensnett get will be 1628 and 1632 from WB.

Was rather hoping for 1700 & 1702. seem a good pair of mercs!
