Yardley Wood Garage

[Trident 4609]

Not logical really more of the fact that 4698 was awesome going down the expressway on one of the 90X services and also dont forget PB have another euro 3 compliant vehicle in the shape of 4697 so would be interesting to see where that one ends up

I'd imagine 4697 wouldn't end up anywhere else. Why would you transfer it out when no other garage has Omnicities?

By that i meant will it be repainted like 4698 or will it be left in the toothpaste livery, my apologies if I was unclear

No worries :) 4697 has infact been repainted/refurbed. Arrived back at PB a few days ago :)

It has probably already been noticed, but 4720 has gained a red N/S front bumper, on the 6 today

Looks like a car had a little collision with 4337 in Birmingham city centre

It was the NXWM heat of Bus Driver of the Year today, with the individual garage winners fighting to be top against the other garages.

The winners of this stage then go on to represent NXWM in the finals in Blackpool.

I think it took place at the WMT Social Club (the Stadium?) in Kings Heath.

It was indeed, and our chap won  :D

Well done to him - heard all about it today whilst on work experience with NXWM (which is brilliant!) and sounded a tough test of a driver's skills. No surprise to me that a YW driver won it - The YW drivers are very good in my opinion - have them everyday on the 76 + 6 and most are very polite and good drivers.  :D

Have YW got Eclipse 2s now?

Have YW got Eclipse 2s now?

No, not unless you know something we don't?

One obvious answer to any one off sightings would be a reserve tunnel fleet like last year filling in gaps where there are delays.

4762 has been named Ella and has gained a blue side stripe and 24 hr stickers.  4757 also has had this treatment but didn't catch the name.

1411 was in the pen at MS this afternoon.

[Nathan4775]

4755 - has been named layla

[CL]

By the looks of it from the photo on the main siote, 4757 looks like it's been named 'Harvey' - could this be a start to both gender names on NX buses? :o
