Refurbs

[BN]

Stu, I wound't know about if the 126/255/6 as i am only 13/almost 14 but from posts on here i gather hybrids on the 126 wouldn't work. Although they are definetly programmed to the 126 as i programmed in 5418 to the 126.

I would love to see hybrids on other routes but the 59 doesn't even have hybrids on sundays.

From what i see in Wolverhampton on Sundays, They try and keep the same type of bus on the same routes.

You only get the Hybrids on the 1, tridents on the 32/33/79( Interwork), 59,126 and 529.

B7RLE's on a sunday are used on the 2,3,4,5/25/27 (Interwork),11,X1,255/6 with a single B6 on the 62.

From what i've seen each sunday PL garage try and keep the same type of bus on each route.

The 255/6 only need B7RLE on a sunday

Nathan, i never realised that Wolverhampton were so strict with there allocation on Sundays. I know i have seen an evening 256 with a B7RLE before, but thought it may have changed over during the evening. Will be interesy]ting to see if the single B6 on the 62 survives now the X1 is withdrawn, or does it have to be a B6 due to the roads it uses.

Strict with allocating??? Where do you guys get this information from???
As for the blinds everything gets programmed in why would just a couple of routes be programmed in????

Can't be that strict as a couple of Sundays back 4567 was on the 5/25/27, along with route 6 branded 2077!

Wasn't me that said WN are 'Strict' with allocating. I just said that you usually get the same type of bus on each routes on a sunday unlike in the week when buses are sometimes all over the place.

4481 is now back in service

Seen it on the way home today, on the 907. The red strip that it had while in TWM livery below the top front window (must have been accident repairs, see http://www.flickr.com/photos/john-s-91/6923415555) has been repainted black like it should be, unlike 4506 when it was refurbished.

I caught it last week on the 59 think on first day after repaint. By the looks of it will not gain 529 branding and neither is 4604/5

Is 4536,4542 or 4544 back yet. Haven't seen 4543 in a few weeks. Is this going in for repaint/refurb

[Ashley 4569]

Saw it a few days ago so it hasn't gone?

4111 is back in service refurbed, it was on the 11A today so I think that means AG has now become the first garage to have a fleet entirely in new livery? Also not sure if anyones noticed this before but since the volvo sheds were delivered for the 71/72, I think they are now the second garage to have a fleet with 0 paper blinds, after Bordesley. How times change!

How about BC, they've eradicated Paper blinds with the Enviro 200's haven't they? So that's 3 garages, and looking at the opposite I reckon PE are probably the worst off with all their Merc's and B6's
