Yes an ex lea hall route is shown as platinum but rarely gets them  surprise lol

[MasterPlan]

WN have had 2141/2 only, the 10 (H?) is to be b7rle operated

That doesn't answer why they're going to WN.

Thought the 10H was staying with y reg tridents? Also why have 2 43** tridents moves to BC? Presume there not trapped?

WN have a new 60 service from today @MasterPlan? So could be for that? Or to replace the 2 43XX to BC?

Presumably they'll be confined to the X70 or 36?
10H wouldn't need all of 2134 - 2140 either, only 2? What about the others are they staying on the X21 or going elcewhere @SL 16 YPN Or can they get round the 36 route as well?

[MasterPlan]

Okay, just to clarify, he said Volvos are going to WN. As 2 have already gone, I guessed he meant he knew more are going there.

X70 isn't ex lea hall it was bought in 2017

[2206]

X70 isn't ex lea hall it was bought in 2017

Its predecessors were Lea Hall routes. 26 and 590. 590 later became the 90 in 2008.

oh apologies I didn't know that all old routes than ran along it still count in it

The tridents are for the 36 I've heard.

My error I should have used the word corridor.

I believe Tony said those two tridents are for the 36, maybe the X21 is becoming platinum with the revised timetable so potentially if the 45/47 go platinum there will be enough platinums to cover all platinum routes? But this is speculation and NOT CONFIRMED

[2206]

so potentially if the 45/47 go platinum

Or maybe if there are enough the 61/63 will go full time platinum?
There'd be enough B5LH for the 45/47 i'd think then.

Not noteworthy now @MasterPlan
X20/X21/X22 now imterwork.
6889 has come in on a X22 and is going out on the X21.
Passenger numbers show the double decker is needed. Leaving with a full load on X21, a B7RLE wouldn't have coped. Maybe BC will get some more for these routes. To remove the B7RLE from the University routes.
Would be even busier on peak trips i'd Think.
4876 is also on University routes as well as the Platinums and B7RLE, currently on the X20.

All day? The ☓21 I use in the morning doesn't change to anything else. I can imagine they do in the evenings judging by the timetable..

Yes, that's what i've Seen.
Hence all the B7RLE on the X20/X22.
