How many routes left for 823 now? Is it just the 9 left for it to go on?

Interestingly. it was reported yesterday that a bus was seen on the 141 in the morning and then the 241/140 on the afternoon?

Unless the person reporting 823 on the 141 made a slight typo and actually meant the 140

[Rob H]

823 was definitely on the 141 kept looking to make sure I was seeing it correctly  ;)

[Stuharris 6360]

Very interesting, it arrived in Halesowen at 16:25, then shot off somewhere, suddenly reappearing past my car and pulling back onto the bus station ready for the 16:38 departure?

If this was the 241 then it does arrive 10/15 minutes early then lays over somewhere then comes back round to halesowen bus station.

Looking at another post by someone in another thread apparantly the 141 did a couple of journeys on the 141 before returning to the garage.

Does the 140/241 have a peak running board?

[Stuharris 6360]

Thats the only explanation i can think of, a peak hour running board or a vehicle swap?

[driver]

there is a 141 running board first thing in the morning booking on at 05:00 and it returns at 10:35 at garage. and that bus then gets used on a peak afternoon running board 140 at 14:20. west brom cover the morning 140 board.

Does the WB working do a 241 board aswell. Nitromatt will know :D

Branded 1 Enviro 400H on 126 tonight! Didn't get fleet number though >:(

Are all of the E400H branded for the 1? I have not been back to Wolverhampton for a while before the rest entered service.

Yes all of 5410-21 are branded which is a shame as E400H i think would look.good on the 59. They could of left a few unbranded like the B5's

I thought E400's were usual on the 246 alongside the mercs?

Yes they are Nathan, at least a couple of E400s and a B7RLE alongside Mercs on the 246 normally!
