Maybe they are planning to remove them from all of 4535-4609 in the near future :)

All 6 buses on the 59 today are E400H's. I must say i see the 59's every Sunday and i don't recall


The closest i've seen is when we had all of 5510-14 on here with a Trident.

WN2025 is on 59 now


What time did this come onto the 59 ?

It will do the last 59 of the night from Wolverhampton at 23:24. 2025 replaced 5407

Those ex BC E400Hs sound like they're having a few reliability problems at the moment. Didn't see too many of them broken down other than in their early days at BC.

Trident 4609

I have noticed a few going back to garage for whatever reason.


In other news (Although it won't be of interest to some) 4006 is enjoying a late night trip on the 59 tonight which is actually a rare thing to see even though late night board 59/09 keeps having Spectra's allocated to it, however these always get swapped for a Trident, E400H or B7RLE.


Trident 4609

A Spectra has been on one of the late boards on the 59 for the past 3 days now. Where are all the 540*'s? They've just disappeared off the route. Not all of them are required for the 1 (And even if there are 1 or 2 on the 126 there should be a couple spare)

So 818 is here for type training (according to Nathan - WB garage thread). Does this mean E200s are expected? Presumably B6 or maybe Merc replacements?

Because hyberheaps are just crap, thats why they shouldn't be on Mansfield trucks, should be on the PVS trucks instead. The unreliability is causing me especially a great deal of inconvinience on a daily basis. Bring back Metros and Fleetlines.

I believe the E200's are replacing B6LE's but this also suggests that WN aren't planning to withdraw routes 62/62A as a previous rumour stated WN were to have 6 LWB E200's, three for the 62/62A, 2 for the 28 with one spare. That's most likely changed but we'll see. Good days are slowly coming to an end in these parts

Trident 4609

Surely if they were for the 28 and 62 then they would be SWB?
