Also T72 WWV out on the S1 today

That's a Yardley Travel bus. Have VIP brought it or Yardley Travel running the S1?

Was the usual S1 VIP driveer (apart from the last few weeks)

Any more news about this company? They still running, who is doing replacement contracts etc as I'm not in Birmingham to be able to check

I had the misfortune of catching a VIP 72 last night. Can't remember which one, but was a Y reg dart. Every time the driver breaker suddenly the engine cut out the the lights went off.

In other news yesterday afternoon on Priory Queensway an 02 plate VIP was being towed away.

Gareth, VIP don't have any Y-reg Darts

Looking at their fleet list to refresh my memory. I think it was probably V256BNV

T72WWV was on the 966 this afternoon with route number scribbled on a piece of A4 paper.

I have just driven two trips on the 966 and didn't see any on either trip, so it didn't stay out very long, or it was off route when it passed me!

T51KLD was on the 424 today seen it in Perry Barr while passing on 4869 on the 997

also a note i asked the driver if he went to the staion which he said yes to, go to the island on solihul by oneils he asked if i was still going to the station which i replied yes to and missed of the town centre and went straight to the station, also bus couldnt change gears making awful sound if im honest. Worst journey ever thank god it was only 10 mins worth.

V256 BNP at the bottom of Chipperfield Road at 21:25 tonight with engine running & hazards on.Looks like the 72E is down to 1 vehicle again tonight

[Kevin_Brum12]

W228 DNO was out on the 424 today and at last the broken window has been replaced!  Why did they not replace the window weeks ago, and to compound matters put the vehicle out in service in that state?
