@Steve3229vp I'm think the 907 (renumbered to X7) I do wonder if the remaining 9** services will get an X in front of them soon?

[markcf83]

Platinums 7508-7514 (7 vehicles) arriving at PB next, but are they for:

907 - possibly (hopefully)
101 - it's possible
52 - surely not !

I'd bet on the 907 for PB.

Haven't seen it mentioned anywhere, but 6824 was seemingly on the 101 the other day..

Probably just a one off, to be honest. I wouldn't have considered the 101 for an upgrade, as nice as it would be (being another one of my local services :P )

Although I don't think the new buses will head for the 101, I can't see why it wouldn't be considered. It's always busy and a popular route. It's also received new buses over the years, so it's not unheard of.

Can't see it being the 101, I think it'll be the 907, it's the only route that makes sense, in regards to PVR. The 33 too, but 7 won't be enough to cover the PVR

The 94 could also be put into that category of always having been a very busy popular route. The 55 too, combining with the 94 to an every 4 mins frequency on this corridor.
Though like most routes on this side of the City, these routes have seen very little investment in recent years.

The 16, 33 & Sutton Lines are arguably more high profile routes than the 94, which is probably why there has been a lack of investment

There have been rumours around the 94 drivers that they are next in line for platinums  ,but the 94 pvr is greater than 7 so not likely unless there's more due.

Perhaps it could be the ones going to Yardley Wood. If they are only based there temporarily for the 6, till the electric vehicles arrive?

Stop trying to wind up @monkeyjoe ;)

What's the PVR of the 907?

[monkeyjoe]

Sounds positive if I could believe it, however fact would be another routes cast offs I can believe   ;)

A mixed bag on the 94 today. Joining the usual Gemini and E400 is an Omnicity and 7506.
