Is OmniCity 3552 still due to replace 4200?

jc

Of note is that most of the Sapphire vehicles at Tamworth have had there light clusters changed to silver, this makes them look much better, especially the Streetlites, as can be seen in John's photo below

How come the 115 and 116 go through Fazeley now? Is this to compete with Central Buses 16?

I suspect so. As Arriva want to run Central Buses out of Tamworth. This is why there has been changes on the 115/116 and why the X65 was brought back.

How is the 16 doing? It always seems busy when I see it and I believe the X55 is holding up pretty good.

Never been on the 16 so I wouldn't know. But the Xpre55 is doing fantastic! Even though Arriva have made a few attempts to get it, the customers still stick with Central Buses!

I noticed YX64 VMG (4412) Sapphire bus running on the 3A to Coton Green this morning. Very bizarre shame I never had my camera lol

Kept on locals because ADL had some warranty work to carry out.

I thought the whole point of the streetshites going was to almost fully eliminate the chance of there being 1 or more non-sapphire buses on it.
