Chelmsley Wood MEB, now that's a blast from the past! I remember that being on timetables along with 'Labour Exchange' in the early 1990's.

A change from running a few minutes behind a certain operator to running a few minutes ahead instead???

Timetables are altered to improve reliability :D

You've not been looking then, they've been serving the baths for years.

I meant I hadn't seen a 57 plate pulsar on it before. Usually the E300 or, Double Decker.

Steveminor · May 02, 2016, 11:28:04 AM

The E300 has now left the fleet & the decker only does baths if it isn't busy on private hires.

When did it leave the fleet?

Solo1 · May 02, 2016, 11:39:01 AM

What do the Versa's do can't they do the baths as well

Steveminor · May 02, 2016, 11:44:11 AM

The E300 left 2 weeks ago.
The versas do a mixture of school contracts private hire & JLR work. When the versas & decker are on other work (which is quite regular lately) then the commanders or pulsars are used.
Mote the E300 has been replaced with a brand new wheelchair accessible vdl coach for Birmingham International fleet.

@Steveminor I bet Claribel's is a totally different kettle of fish compared to when you were there previously i.e. when the operated Leyland Leopard & Ford coaches of the 55 & 94

Steveminor · May 03, 2016, 06:45:03 AM

Yeah it's a much improved company now much more professional. Not just with Claribels but Birmingham International coaches as well. Not a Leyland Doyen in sight lol
