Any updates of NXWM vehicles that due to be disposed and scrapped?

Several vehicles, including all the short Excels at Pensnett are to be next to go, but I only get comprehensive lists when vehicles have left

I presume NX will have to have a decent clearout to make way for the withdrawals as a result of the 130 new buses entering service during the course of 2013

Have I missed something?

Not quite Eastenders or Emmerdale, but the first banning of a 'non-spambot' from this forum.  ::)

Quite why Jade/Daniel/6013 chose to behave like they did is beyond me, however as someone adept with the inner workings of SMF, the ban mechanism should keep them away now.  ;)

No trouble to report from him/her on my FB page yet, which is good, and I hope it stays that way.  8)

Not quite a soap opera. Just I was washing my hair and watching the clouds moving so I came on here and saw something had happened

Sounds like a typical Friday night on Broad Street. Did you ever go for that drink Gareth?

I declined. Was washing my hair or something that night.

Judging by the full email address Jade/Daniel/6013 all use I would be very careful about accepting a date. It hints and both male and female and sexual orientation

Maybe we should rename the thread 'Gender Transfers'.


Sorry ::)

Reiss is harmless, it's just his comments and suggestions are somewhat questionable. From past experience, 'Jade' is a nasty, foul mouthed piece of work whose language would make a builder blush, who then after a torrent of abuse, asked me out!


To quote Roy from 'The IT Crowd' upon learning that Jen has just cost Daniel, the security guy, £31k on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, and now has to go on a date with him: "Wow, the rules on that show sure have changed!"  ::)

4320/1 were transferred to BC last month.
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

Rode on 4320 yesterday and I've recorded a Vid of it on the 957 between Seven Star Road and The Olton Tavern but I won't be uploading it until at least the end of the month but it will be worth the wait ;)

Will 4305-12 go to BC or join 4305/6 at Walsall?

We will just have to wait and see!! I was surprised that 4305/6 have gone back to Walsall.

Why Would Birmingham Central gain any more Tridents. And if they did transfer there what would leave. As Walsall could take more tridents in Dispose of B10L/B6 or displace some Scania to Perry Barr/Yardley Wood to displace Volvo B10L`s there.

Did the Pvr of the 97 increase with the recent changes? That may explain why 4320/1 have moved to BC or for the Metro replacement. Other than those, there is no benefit of moving 51 plate Tridents in to BC, as they are only a year younger than the Y-reg Tridents that might replace. Plus the majority are still in TWM livery & non-refurbished

It's been confirmed Pensnett's 30 Enviro400s are now staying at Pensnett. We won't receive any Enviros from any other garages in the near future either.

It looks like some are getting new 9 branding, which is what I originally thought would happen after the old branding started being removed.

If the PE enviro400's have been debranded from the 9 and is gaining new route branding, i wonder if the 50 will have new branding aswell?

I'm not sure about the branding part just speculating but it seems more than likely.
