Diamond Bus - Unusual Workings

[Ash]

The 40 service West Bromwich to Wednesbury if so it's rare these days to get a full size single decker mostly solo's and mpd's on there now.

The 40 service West Bromwich to Wednesbury if so it's rare these days to get a full size single decker mostly solo's and mpd's on there now.

It's usually a mix of MPDs, Solos and various Wright bodied buses with the odd appearance from a Centro here and there. First time I've ever seen a B7RLE on there though.

I know the '08reg' reg has appeared on the 301 and as someone reported one was on the 202 today but apart from that never seen them on any other services apart from the 4/4H/4M hope solo's and mpd don't start appearing on the 4 because the b7rle's are starting to be scattered around as they can't cope.

I've also seen one of the 13 plate B7RLE's on the 301 not so long back around 3 weeks ago

Not surprised as soon the sun comes out the cadets break down if it reaches 28 degrees over the weekend the cadets will definitely struggle on the 4H and 4M.

In our two week heatwave to come, their buses will really start to struggle-those extra centros are really needed at tividale

It'd been there for a hour and a bit prior then if that's the case as I saw it at 1650hrs (and a hour earlier in Dudley!)

A signature hybrid on the 600 in Erdington.

Probably using the newer buses to stop the darts overheating on a warm day like today.

The darts are usually fine though arent they-sorry to say its the euro-heavyweights that often seem to have problems cough*b6s*
