Suttons go platinum means 63 regs e400 onto 94?
Sometimes other routes get investment to release those current vehicles onto other services that operate with older buses? 94 has Geminis which for their ages don't seem to look old alx 400 b7tl on the other hand... Maybe once the 4799-15/17-29 is completely repainted. The geminis might go in and upgrade the 94 to crimson?

If the 902/904/905/914 go platinum the 63 plate E400 could go to BC for the Bristol Road?

Or get crimsonised for the 126?

126 will probs get new buses this year but have heard some rumours about that one. Sutton upgraded to platinums (with plug sockets/USB?) to contend with sapphire, e400 like @2206 said to bristol road and crimsonised with branding (dark green?)

They said they didn't have usb or sockets on our platinums due to vandalism fears

seeing as it is half term next week I was looking at trying and organising a garage visit to either Perry Barr or Walsall with me and a member of family. What is the best thing to do? and any help would be greatly appreciated.

[Michael Bevan]

Your best bet would be to either talk to Tony or contact Head Office on 01212547200 (I think it is).

I sincerely hope not, having sluggish E400s on Pershore Rd is one thing, but to have them on Pershore AND Bristol would be terrible.

7 branded 4813 and 4815 are out today. I'm told 4814 is on the pits. Just spotted 4818 and 4817 (which went the normal route at Perry Common Library resulting in it now being stuck, I think, since the normal way is closed) which is also branded.

Are their any photos of the 7 branded vehicles ?!

The branding says up to every 8 minutes, but the 7 is every 10 minutes? Peak time only increases to every 9. Does this suggest upcoming changes for the 7?

[Michael Bevan]

Looks like another 33 branded E40D is off the road as 4937 is on it today.

4853 on the 914 (I don't know if the Cap Gemini runs this week)

Usually the dedicated bus for the Cap Gemini is 4853, so seeing that on the 914 got me wondering if it doesn't run in school holidays. But then I saw 4819 a few minutes after
