nxwm are usually tight with the options list, the geminis look much better bonded such as first's.

It is not so much tight as practical. As stated above gasket glazing can be replaced in a short time, The Lynx had bonded glazing and had to be off the road for two days every time a window was broken

The 11 doesn't interwork with the 32/33 other than maybe in the evening.

I was on the 529 yesterday morning, I saw 1672 turning right to Moseley Road, this was 10:50am. It was a 10:40am bus departing from Wolverhampton. The window looked normal.

Why would it look anything else?

I'm afraid you'll have to get used to it. Don't worry, and welcome :)

Well what happened to 1672 then, was it the one with the broken window? As to be quite honest I'm sure with such a large fleet there is a broken window somewhere probably nearly every day so the fact a window has been broken and then changed is hardly headline bus enthusiast news

Yes wilmotm, I was one broken window, the only thing of significance is that domino.99 knew who broke it from his school and fair play to him informed the safer travel team. So hopefully that may prevent the culprit doing it again in the future & potentially injuring a passenger or driver in the process

Yes, I was referring to the OP's post. ( Thanks, Winston, for covering it for me. )
