Thanks for the tip off.
Are they on peak/daytime workings or ones that run til midnight?
Is this a one day loan or are they going to around for several days?

Just came on here to post, saw them both around lunchtime. Definitely prefer the crimson to the red and white, and CVs version.

Sounds like a 4 or 10 broke down somewhere, lots of unhappy people at the stand along with a couple of supervisors.

For whatever reason... The 4 and the 10 are also going via Sky Blue Way in both directions like the 8's and 9's. Is this supposed to be happening as only the 8's and 9's have been advertised as changed.

4452's red streak reigns no more!

Is this batch due in for repaint soon out of curiosity been as the rest of the 445* / 446* has been put into Crimson for the 97?

The 4 this evening is 100% bendibus including long time absentee 6015, first time on the road for a few months awaiting a replacement engine, it came out this afternoon as a change bus for 6012

The 4 I caught on Saturday didn't, so maybe there was some confusion over the changes? Though how long we were stuck on Far Gosford St, it probably should.

4413 was delivered home on a tow truck about half 12.

Drivers have now been reminded of the correct route so this is not happening now.

The reference to Tridents on 11/12X all day workings as unusual workings reflects on poor performance of ex Walsall Enviro's.

Are they proving to be unreliable then?

I have had no luck in finding 4773 the last two times I have been over to Coventry. Is it off the road, or just my luck of not finding it?

It hasn't been out for over a week, despite the other answer posted as though it was fact
