Arriva Tamworth

yeah but when 4600 was here it was at least possible to cover the PVR of 10 with all deckers. I just don't get why 9 E400s were ordered when 10 were needed. Maybe the frequency was lower back then but from what I can tell SDs still made it onto there often

When the E400s arrived 4200 stayed also being swopped for the troublesome 4600 ( after party at Derby as it left ) 
When the PVR is for all 10, Saloons have to be substituted to allow routine servicing & MOT preps at times in addition to unscheduled accident or overhaul repairs

Just seen former Wythenshawe Enviro 300 CX58EVN (2741) on the 786. On bustimes.org it's tracking as 4600

Cheers ... Richard

2747, CX58EVW was also here on the 17th November on the pits with 2741, so I assume thats due out soon too

Ex Wythenshawe 2747 CX58EVW on the 786 today ... no fleet numbers but still branded for the 263

Cheers ... Richard

Looks like two separate vehicles to me looking at the individual journeys.

they're both tracking on different routes today

Still 4600 tracks on Tamworth locals so its still broken but its good to know it might be back. for now

Looks like 4600 (the streetdeck) is back out
Seen at the tesco express stop in the city, looks practically brand new now

now the 110 has a chance of full decker allocation 
still some E400s have been doing 2s and 3s recently, anyone know why?

Whats wrong with the Single Deckers being used on the 110?

Deckers are usually kept on locals if required for repair or maintenance so they can be easy be changed over as a spare become available

not that much as an enthusiast as most of the arriva pulsars are actually decent plus I love an E300. still I see them pretty packed kinda often

Plus if they're used on lightly loaded trips it does'nt matter too much,especially if they're heading into Birmingham.

What is the regular type used on the 765/X65 linking Tamworth to Lichfield?
