They are not the most reliable of vehicles. Another reason for less of them at the weekends, Sundays in particular is that drivers who haven't been trained on them can't drive them, so double deckers have to be used.

6030 was on the 67 this afternoon.

4931 has gained the front grille off a 48** Enviro400. It still has the AD badge, in the old shade of red, and it does not seen to sit properly. Stands out by a mile

4851 seems to have been off the road for a few days parked nose in, in the same place by the engineering bays, so it might be 4851's grille

Noticed the ticket branding Enviros have '£6 Evening 5' branding now, as opposed to £5. I've checked the NX site, and I can confirm, the price has gone up by a pound. Surely it would make sense to keep the £5 for 5 people, or have 6 people for £6? - I'm just going along the lines of consistency, but then again, it means each person would/could pay their share of £1.20...

No, the evening 5 was £7, so in fact it has gone down by £1

Does anyone know how many buses are put on the 7 Mon - Fri?

[MrBevan2000]

4844 broke down on Wednesday. Radio and monitor failure. Apparently it had repairs done to the heater on Monday. Also there's talk of PB28 being branded.

[MrBevan2000]

Looks like at least two 47** Enviros have been sighted in Perry Barr turf this week with 4732 reported on the 115/914 and 4729 potentially on the 16.

What are they doing at PB? Are they covering the Enviro's that are going for their MOT?

[Nxwm]

No Perry Barr seem short on buses

Nice to hear. For me, the 28 is more of a neglected service - one I see many times, but never use. Would be nice to see some 'recognition' - I wonder what colour it'd be.

First guesses on (Light) Green or Blue
