It can be impossible to keep fleet lists upto date because buses can transfer in the blink of an eye

precisely, when NXWM 4147 & 4180 moved last month I was asked on the Wednesday to get a bus to BC by the following Monday. Wolverhampton had the spare bus, but it couldn't go to BC because of the ticket machine so two moves had to be organised in 3 days

You really don't know how lucky you are nowadays, up until a few years back you always had to rely on either 'Buses' or the PSV circle, both of which the news was about two months behind by the time you got to read it. When you visited any town the fleet was always slightly different to what you were expecting. I do my best with the fleetlists, but remember it is just me updating that whole site.

Absolutely right Tony - and you do all this on top of a full time job.

I'm one of hopefully many who really appreciate having all this information on tap here.

Yesterday 2212 was on the 3 and 2703 was on the 2. Today was the day of the Solos, however:-
2447 was on the 3, 2448 was on the 4, 2450 was on the 2, 2496 was on the 3 and 2497 was on the X65! 3001 was on the 65 instead.

I seen a post somewhere I believe it was on the fleet changes regarding 2491/2496/2497 can anyone confirm if these are based or working out of Tamworth info would be greatly appreciated

See reply no. 742 above.
As I said yesterday 2496/7 are working from Tamworth. I haven't seen 2491 yet - it'll probably be here as soon as it's painted.

Thank you so much for your post derningtona greatly appreciated yes I did see your previous post regarding the above vehicles I only questioned it because I have checked on the web site and it States on there they are down or based at Milton Keynes but again thank you

[Steveminor]

That's because it takes Tony time to update the fleet lists he can't get every fleet up to date all the time when you think of the many movements & transfers of all these companies.

[mark114]

Thank you for your opinion steveminor just for the record I am not blaming Tony at all in fact I am not blaming anyone the reason I worded it the way I did because when the previous post seen these vehicles le 2496/2497 I just checked on where they were based so again please don't get me wrong I am blaming no one I hope this puts the record straight
