Coventry Garage

isnt this and other bus stop updates all controlled by some office in Brum and they just have not got a clue about what happens on Coventry? Do they know where Coventry is? Bet Coventry council pays them a fortune to do this but it does not happen = nice little earner?

Why would "Coventry council" (sic) pay TfWM for doing something in TfWM's own bus station?

What bus goes to Coventry airport

The NX website is your friend. Took 10 seconds to see that they list 21 and 27A as stopping a short distance away.

Some misleading info on the website then maybe? The airport site is huge.
To my knowledge the 21 is well away from the airport.
For airport south, yep, the 27A.
But for airport west its the 539. (Not NX)

The 20C is operated by NXC, as per the 20/20A/20B.

6952; 6954 & 6956 Now delivered to Coventry garage

Interesting - I did wonder if the Scarborough built ones would be delivered concurrently. Not the first 69xx at Coventry as well - 696x/697x in 1978.

Are there two assembly lines delivering to NXWM from Falkirk also?

Saw quite a number of Platinum's at Wheatley Street Garage this afternoon, of which the ones that i was able to see the numbers of were: 6953, 6954, 6956, 6959, 6960 and 6962.  I did see another one parked up inside the Garage that i couldn't see the number of, but i did notice that its West Midlands transfer on the side of it had been replaced by a Coventry one !  The rest of this new delivery will all have their West Midlands transfers changed in due course ?

That would be 6952 I suspect; 6952/4/6 were all due to be coventryfied today. The platinum under the fleetname should be in purple

[Coventry Transport Dude]

I think you're spot on there Tony regarding 6952 possibly being the Coventryfied Platinum that i saw today, as it was standing on its own right in the middle of the main part of the Garage, where as 6954 and 6956 were both standing up in the Maintenance area at the time and i was just about able to see the fleet number of both Buses !

Figured this would be the most suitable place to ask.. (apologies if it's been asked before)

Would I be able to use my Regional nBus Swift on the 11 from Leamington Spa? I've never had a problem when using a paper pass from Leamington before, but I was wondering whether the Swift card would, or rather, would not scan. ??? I only ask as it's happened before where my pass didn't register and I ended up paying a cash fare. This incident happened to me on the X70 when I was outside the network boundary - which hadn't occurred to me - and I scanned my passed to which the scanner read "this pass cannot be used here".

Thanks.
