just seen withdrawn  W 903 JNF  go past my window on the no 10 in Kidderminster    the last time is saw  it was when petes
travel ran a couple of tendered  routes down here

Good spot! What colour was it and was it definitely not W902-not doubting you but just checking! Thanks :)

I vaguely recall someone posting that they'd seen W903JNF repainted allover blue a few weeks back

it is blue the one I  saw  it will be coming back soon  so will double check    to confirm it
When it came past on the next 2 runs   I noticed it was W905  not   W903.

No worries-still a transfer from long acre-so this summer this one bus has done tividale, ,long acre and now kidderminster!! Just redditch left. I imagine long acre have a few extra buses at the moment but originally this was at te while the enviro200 dart was at la. Imagine  the enviro went back to te but havent seen it for a while...

they seam to  have moved some larger vehicles  to Kidderminster just latley

Yeah and think theyre needed. People will sooner or later get fed up with solos :P
yeah they are  need ,  how many versions of the solo are there. as there is at  least 2  37 seater solo  in Kidderminster
it  was on the  last 3 runs again today

W905 JNF seen on the 303 in Kidderminster today. YJ06 YJV or something like that also on the 3.

It usually gets an MPD or Solo from what I see

saw one in service in that livery today  but to far away to id it. and 31507 is running on the no 10 in Kidderminster today  thought it was sold
30445  T 418 MNH  has just gone past me on  the  no 10 it is the red and white livery Sam so could be the one you saw

Yes you're probably right. I also saw R455 CCV in Kidderminster today, was nice to see the old order after most has been ousted by solos and MPDs!! Everywhere I look in the area now I seem to see a Vxxx HEC dart!!!

S405 JUA also noted parked up at the back of KR garage today, next to 30860 and R503 CNP...
