Was mentioned on yahoo Bus Group tonight that W228 DNO was seen in Dudley tonight with its VIP branding etched out, anyone any info on this bus?
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

And which solo is scruffy? All the ones at long acre are quite smart I would have said?

Pass, mind was more on the task of catching the 5 behind it

Saw a VIP dart doing a u turn outside Moor St station about 07:50 this morning, their 99 timetable isn't on the NWM website anymore so no idea if it was one of them late or anything

The S1 was awarded to WMSNT in October and the 40 also to WMSNT back in April!

40 was April wasn't it to WMSNT with the S1 in October to WMSNT

VIP are obviously on the ball with cancelling services then...... they're too per-occupied with swapping the registration plates around

VIP V256 BNV in the forecourt of the clock garage at 3:30 with its engine cover open looks like a 966 failure.

VIP used to operate a service to 'Alderman Bowen Day Centre'. Today the vehicle used was WMSNT 119. I believe the vehicle used on the two previous days was an Enviro 200, KX57PMC. All were showing on their digital blinds 'On hire to Birmingham City Council'.

Looks like it's not just their public transport contracts they're losing then...

They seem to run a lot more journey of a Saturday now. I don't know weather it's the timetable hasn't been updated or weather they are not registered. I think the NWM timetable still shows the rendered journeys
