The Central B'ham Diamond routes are all Euro 6 compliant bar the 16/16w. So something will need to be sorted with those.

Isn't Wolverhampton getting a minimum euro rating soon euro 4?

More streetlites for West Midlands?!

They are quite nippy movers

Nippy? Lol which Streetlites are these?

MMCs at LandFlight are far superior than the latest Streetlites at Diamond.

I can attest to that after riding one for the last couple of days on the 89 and at AMRTM, I think it's down to the lighter weight.

Any views/comments are my own and do not reflect those of my employer.

All of the routes that Diamond operate in Wolverhampton are tendered, and are usually Euro 5 or Euro 6 vehicles

KR appear to be losing Volvo/Wright to Bolton with 30509 being the latest to go today, but also appear to have gained a new Streetlite (all-over white):

You're not wrong, It was 30508/9 & 30814/5 than went up North, I think 30509 came back earlier than the other 3 & had it's logo's changed to Diamond Wm, where the other 3 retaining the green Diamond logo's.

Kidderminsters all over white Streetlite was in Kidderminster on a 303 to Worcester at the Island at the bottom of Comberton Hill.

Shortly before that I saw a mellor strata demonstrator vehicle pass Kidderminster Station at about 11:00. Is this also with Diamond  Bus then?

Yes, it's been on loan and working from Redditch for a good week or two at least. I caught it on the 42 (Coventry to Brownshill Green) on Saturday, where it seems to have spent most of it's time.

The new Streetlite is just a demo on loan from Wrightbus.
