National Express Coventry - Unusual Workings

[lauren1993]

I feel some buses are male, due to certain behaviours, and the number plates.

Yes, they are made up. However, i'm going to ask the depot if they are planning on naming any and if they'd use all the names me and my friend made for the enviros.

Doubt they'd use blokes names, I thought all vehicles were feminine? The amount of my ones who have the 'time of the month' I'd say so! And trains are definitely women.

What about Thomas the tank engine?

The other day there was an B7RLE on the 19, leaving the city centre at about 07:40 (This working is usually a Mercedes).

Yesterday we had 4423 on 21 along with 6017. There has been at least one bendibus on 21 this week every day! Some days even two! And since monday only 4887 and 4889 went on 21, 4885-4889 have not been on 21 at all most days!

[lauren1993]

Oh and I forgot, 20 branded B7rle 2169 ran on 10 all day from AM!

[lauren1993]

Today was a bit boring:
4832 - 23
4889 - 7
4695 - 18/18A

and 4885 AND 4887 were on 21 today  >:( but they have had most days this past week without any of them on so I won't go too mad.

The best thing about today though 4891 is back in service!!!  ;D ;D

[lauren1993]

Today,
8/8A branded e400 4890 on the 11/12, that's rare even for a sunday, as they usually use the unbranded e400's on the 11/12 on a sunday only.

Trident on the 8/8A couldn't catch fleet no.

The Class 323 (spaceship) is definitely a young boy to me

4889 on the 7 on a Saturday? Shame I missed that :O

Today: 2153 on the 7 (Probably filling in for a Mercedes)

Unidentified Enviro on the 23 this afternoon, although I suspect this is isn't really unusual anymore.


EDIT: Added quote. My point about 23 is now irrelevant.

[lauren1993]

 Today:
4885 - 42
4830 - 10
21 branded 4841 - 12 (pm only) (21 during day)
2 bendibuses on 21 yet again but also 4886 and 4887 on 21!!  >:(
Merc on the 11 due to 4413 breaking down at warwick uni and having to be towed!
4694 - 2/3

[Rob H]
