I take it your referring Enviro 400 MMC and if so, I had no idea that BC will be getting them !

BC (900 and 957) and WA (x51, 934/5/6 and 977) are getting them two tone grey. PB operate 902/4/5 gold corridor, im not too sure what other gold corridors they operate as my local garage is PN

For new livery, see third photo down.

Wow ! That looks really good and it's a good contrast to the current livery, I look forward to potentially traveling on the bus in the near future !

@BusFan Can you please use the forums 'search' facility or simply have a looking through the various categories before posting question after question, there is an entire thread dedicated to 'Platinum' (within NXWM), there is another thread for 'Gold Corridors' & another one for the new NX bus order, Winston

I would presume that the idea is to try out the Platinum buses on well established corridors, and that if successful, they may move to other routes which could well include the Perry Barr Sutton Line routes!
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

It's a waste of time, the ex 997 enviros have been wrecked. Leather seats should be downstairs only with the rear facing seats plastic like these so they don't get with by people using them as a footrest!

What are the chances of an ex PN Enviro on a Sutton route?
4826/27 were on the 115/914 early March.  Only a matter of time before there's one on the 902/4/5 .....  :)

A couple have been on the 902s. There was one on the 907 today. I think it would just be pot luck if you get one on there or not (as in where buses are parked in garage the night before)

Also what's usually on the 38?
Usually B7TL/OmniLink

Well as it happens, 4804 was on the 914 today, but according to he-who-is-always-right it's not unusual.

If you don't like me, don't like this forum judging by your comments you are posting on facebook why are you on here?

There was an ex PE on the 33 this evening

But Enviros on the 33 and the Sutton routes are the norm. Whilst 'new' arrivals may be of interest to some, they are certainly not unusual workings.

Exactly Gareth, no-one records 4775 on the 51 as a noteworthy working, for some reason there is an obsession with these ex Pensnett ones!

BU07 LGO

It's called noteworthy workings not unusual so posted as its of interest to some people. That's why I only put it in the Pb thread

Treat the 94 & 97 with respect lol.

Don't exactly know of any night-contracts, but I saw 4777 "turned off" on Great Charles St Queensway (Newhall St Junction) - around 20:57... Anybody knows what it was doing there? No-one on board, bar the driver.
