Wolverhampton Garage

[NXWM Spectra]

From the unusual workings thread:

Currently aboard 5402 on the 126 dep Dudley 10:50 ish.

5401 is on there too. Departed Wolverhampton Bus Station at 13:10.

5409 on WN28! Departed Wolverhampton Bus Station at 16:30

Is the 1 still fully hybrid today?

[Trident 4609]

Yes NXWM Spectra the 1 was fully hybrid. Less buses are needed on Saturday service.

5409 came off the 1 as a swap i believe

And the 59 had no hybrids today (Usually 3 unbranded E400H's on Saturday) hence why two hybrids were on the 126.

5405 was on Metro Replacement. This was probably in for VI today coming out in the afternoon

On the 15.32 126 departure from wolves went the 256 way out of town then turned left onto the ring road and then right onto normal line of route. Was that a diversion or is its new route out of wolves?

I had a driver do that think he was on 256 but the driver went around market then back up Cleveland st

The 82 has had alot of drivers checking their running board today with the timetable changes, but the reliability has improved from what I have seen and rode.

Re - noteworthy working - 4556 - WN4

Did the bus leave town between 1945 and 1950, just curious as to whether it was a late board but I don't think it is

Looking at the timings it appears to be the one that finishes in Pendeford at 20:09 before running private back to garage (RB 4/01)

In reference to a comment in the Noteworthy Workings Thread, Any ideas as to why 2064 was near Cannock Bus Station today?

The 4556 working was around 1952 ish as I was on 853 on the 54 arriving into city.

4012 is currently 'back home' in BC garage

Is there a reason to this?

Of course there is a reason, I've no idea what it is, but buses aren't moved around for fun

Probably due to the fact there is an extra hybrid on the 59 (2 instead the usual one)

it got nothing to do with that it where ever the buses are parked

[Trident 4609]

I am aware of that Jack (It was me who told you about that!) ::)

As a there were two hybrids on the 59 instead of one, it means when allocating a bus to that board on the 1 (Either from the start of board or as a swap), a hybrid (which would be in garage) wasn't available so they had to send a Trident out instead.

Just seen 4586 in Wolverhampton Bus Station. Has this been off the road? Reason i ask is because i hadn't seen it for a while.
