Trident 4609

Quote from: nitromatt1 on May 22, 2013, 10:33:37 PM
Walsall B6s are in Wolverhampton bus station on a daily basis on the 69

And the 39 and sometimes the 40 :) I wouldn't say daily though. The 39 usually has B10L, The 69 is usually 2-3 B7RLE and a couple of B10L. B6's on the 69 usually appear on saturdays.

Winston, 4135, 4310-12 are staying at WN it seems.

Possibly? Due to the 6 x Mercs going in to the training fleet instead?

In : 21 x Hybrids

Out (either withdrawal/transferred):

Excels - 684, 706 & 708 (3)
Mercs 1543, 1545, 1546 & 1549, 1687-1692 (10)
Tridents - 4305-9, 4384/5 (7)

So that is 21 in, 20 out (to date) plus the WN's Pvr should have now reduced by two following the withdrawal of the X1, so I make it WN still has 3 extra buses.

I assume YW will still need another Trident to allow 4122 to be released to Dundee

Well as i said 687/711 may be withdrawn when 586 is tranferred to WN

Ashley 4569

687 was doing 27s today i think, have WN got 662?

That means my theory of 586/662 transferring to WN were right :)

No doubt the final 2 Excels (687 and 711) are now withdrawn.
687 was out on the 27 all day yesterday Wednesday 22/5, possibly last NXWM Excel working? Where was the big farewell party!! :P
