still tony, i cant see the need for these services to serve pendeford business park much after 20:30pm every trip. I hope nx really don't sit back and not push these services. for example, putting some info in bus stops, especially in cheslyn hay and featherstone might help.

@Tony How many more Spectra's will be left in service and roughly how much longer do the remainder have left in service. Never really been a fan of the B6's but cannot be many more of them left in service either I guess.

The Spectra's left after these withdrawals will be:
4002
4006
4009
4010
4016
4017
4018
4020
4021

So 9 Spectra's left. Their time really is coming to an end.

Cheers for the Info Nathan they are a good bus lets hope they go on to other operators & not PVS or maybe 1 could be preserved you never know what will happen in the near future

4001 is the first low floor in the Uk isnt it?

Surely it should be preserved on that basis?

Common misconception...

My understanding is that an Excel, a B6, a Merc, 3 Spectras and maybe a Dart are being looked at for preservation.

It was infact R222 AJP of Abus,Bristol who beat TWM into service.

I'm told 4001 will be preserved, although i cannot say whether that is 100 percent official.

Are you sure? Google is not giving me anything when I search "R222 RJP"

@Matt The reg is ''R222 AJP'', not ''R222 RJP''

That is because Nathan has one letter incorrect, A-Bus is owned by Mr A J Peters, so the reg is R222 AJP.
They both entered service on the same day, R222 AJP one hour before R1 NEG which was still being used to show off!

@Alex In response to your post in the noteworthy workings thread,  Since the 26th April changes, an extra bus has been added to the 4. This board (4/08) has quite regulary been a Trident of late despite still being booked down as a B7RLE. 4555 was allocated from garage this morning.
