Tony can't post them until they actually happen or he is given permission to do so!

Although tbf Stu, Tony has already mentioned which ones are expected to die over the next few weeks. As you said, Tony cannot post anymore than he has. If he could post fleet numbers, he would have! WN have more buses than usual (There have been more buses in than there has withdrawn). Tony did mention not so long back that several B6's (586,598 and a few others) plus 4001 and 4015 were due to be the next in line for the chop.

Although tbf Stu, Tony has already mentioned which ones are expected to die over the next few weeks. Its a shame to say 4001 may be withdrawn either tomorrow or very soon.

True Nathan but i don't think WN have decided what buses are going yet!

Hopefully, as has been suggested, Wythall get 4001 still in working order!

632 broke down in Wolves bus station this afternoon and later left empty, presumably to PL. RIP?

No. It was MOT'd the other week!

[Tara4352]

634 won't be seen again

Yes it was withdrawn in place of 632 which surprisingly had its MOT renewed.

The info is nothing new. I already made a list of the B6's and Spectra's left in the W'ton Garage thread.

632 was back in service on Tuesday this week.

Do we have any more planned withdrawals in the next few weeks? This would be very helpful information

7 B6s
10 Spectras
5 more B10Ls
and a lot of Mercedes all in the next few months

So there are no more planned to be withdrawn within the next month except 1407 which is dying on Friday?

[P419 EJW]

Has 1407 retired because I saw the post earlier and it's gone now.

Marked as reserve fleet now, but along with the other 5 is still out on the 40/41 at the moment

[Tony]

The next 3 most likely withdrawals are

PE 1629 (next week)

WB 1613; 1698 (week after)

(PE 1630 has had a reprieve)
