I knew i was sure about it ;) Thanks for the confirmation John :)

On the lines of Euro 4 Tridents 4586 has reappeared back in service after being out of action for months (Don't know what was wrong with it)

Smestow run was a Spectra this morning as it passes my house, geTting 2060 or any plastic on there is generous being an expupil of that school, i say give them 1654 the Wn shed every day.

I think these days all school buses stay in the garage in between duties

I believe one may come off another route like the 59 or 11

[Ashley 4566]

The 751 i think is whatevers in the garage

711 could be a mix of garage or one or two off normal service, my first bit of intelligence for the day is that something does come off the 11 as it is replaced by a B6LE off the 26

Yes i think a Spectra or Trident comes off the 11 and the B6 enters the bus station after finishing the last 62 which then goes onto the 11 (586 yesterday)

[the trainbasher]

Are spectras on the 82 getting more common?

[Trident 4609]

I would still class them as unusual although they do occur quite a bit on a Saturday

[the trainbasher]

Saw at least 2 on the 82 in Bilston about 1050

[Ashley 4566]

In that case both deckers on the 11 get pulled for B6s, i know that the 13:00 62A from town to tettenhall wood then does the 14:15 26 from wolves and return and re-enters the bus station on the 11 stand and takes up duties on the 11

I haven't been following, so apologies if it has already been answered, but what is the official allocation of Spectra.s and Hybrids to Wolverhampton routes now?

[Ashley 4566]

Spectra action is pretty fluid, you can get them on most routes now

Hybrids mostly the 1 and 59, with appearances elsewhere occassionally but youd have to be in the right place

Doesnt a hybrid appear on the 126 at peak times ?

Its not an official allocation but they do sometimes get taken off the 59 to replace a broken down trident :)


Spectras are mainly allocated the 11/32/3/59 and 79 however they do make regular appearances on the 27/8,255,256/7 and 529.

B5's are allocated to the 1 and 59 (5510-14 appear on the 59 as they are unbranded) and all of WNs 12 E400H are route branded for the 1 so are only allocated to the 1.

However Both b5's and E400H (Branded and Unbranded have appeared on quite a few rare workings on other WN services. The Unbranded B5's do make appearances on the 126.

Spectra's aren't used on a Sunday
