Many thanks Tony, I was quite confused as I had checked quite carefully.

6030 and 6031 on the 67 today. I counted 7 deckers on the route as well. I thought there were 8 vehicles off peak, presumably I was mistaken.

There is 1 extra bus now each on the 65, 67 and 115/914, with the work at Salford Circus

And 6029 did a morning & afternoon peak board. Those three seem to be out every week day, never breaking down, just PB don't seem to be able to get any others out apart from 6028 occasionally

have PB given up trying to get them into service now Tony, surely here has to be a time when PB say enough is enough?
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

They can be made to work, as 6029-31 are proving at the moment

i think they could all be made to work, but they tend to breakdown quicker than they can be repaired. Problem is PB have more buses to look after apart from the Bendi's!

Spotted a Omnicity DD around 930am yesterday passing our place on the BC Spine Road.

Would it have been on a private hire?

Tony

Oh No, there are two Enviro 400s on the 94 today (4855/6) far too modern for that route!

Is 4828 in use yet?

On the 65 today if anyone wants to find it, which I suppose qualifies as an unusual working!

Ashley

OmniCity DD on Sutton Line mates tonight, saw it in Scutton town at 2140 heading for Roughley
