Noteworthy Workings - January 2014

[nitromatt1]

There isn't anywhere else you could change routes. Could do it on the stratford Road outbound but then you'd get gob and flu germs up the screen

They interwork at Fenside, don't they? ;) ;)

We were clearly talking about Birminghams 2/3 Matt ;)

-facepalm-

[Trident 4609]

Anyway back on topic ::) Not as such the type of bus but Hardly any Spectra's on the 59 today which is pretty unusual Mon-Fri

[Ashley]

Think the 79 had one or two Spectra's on

[P419 EJW]

Saw a Spectra on 529 this evening around 6pm, heading to Walsall. I would say which fleet number to help you, but I'm not interested in these nasty Spectras.

[Sh4318]

Would have done the 3 aswell LS so you were right in saying it was on there as the 2/3 interwork

Do they? I did not know this information. We are talking about the Yardley Wood one yeah?

Yes I was talking about YW 2/3 :) Where do they interwork Ash?

They interwork in Birmingham I think Nath :)

Do they use B10L's on the 2 anymore?

No its mainly Tridents and Enviros they use on the 2 :)

According to the timetable the 2 and 3 are on separate boards

Which Spectra was it onthe 529 may I ask? Also Ash, One of the Spectra's on 79's today was 4002 :) First time in a fair dew weeks seeming All 79 boards Mon-Fri are allocated Tridents now.

Again, could be worse. I'd take a Spectra over any other DECKER at Wolverhampton. (well, bar 4565 ;))

[Ashley]

The Spectra definately wasn't on the 529 at midday

[P419 EJW]

Oh. I didn't make myself clear. I don't pay attention to which Spectra it is. I just notice them and look away until they pass me. Sorreh. D:

Correct. I assumed it replaced a Trident or somethinglikedat.

Tbh I have to be used them living on the 59 route ::) Although I suppose its better than a Green Machine (Especially 5512 which is a Piece of 'JNK') turning up ;D

Regarding my earlier post about a 400 on the 241... the same board just came past again, and it was a B7. So what I actually saw earlier, was 3 9s in convoy. So one was on time, one was 20 mins late and one was 32 mins late...

Don't you like 4578 or 4575 anymore then. Tbh to me they are all the same tridents are especially the ZF's. (Apart from 4560 and 4609 IMO)

5510(?) - 126

I was going to ask you if there was a possibility of it being 3 9's in convoy but it seemed unlikely at that time of night. Is there bad traffic in Birmingham/Hagley (Well can it get any worse?)

[Trident 4609]

5510(?) - 126

Could have been. Wasn't on the 59 today and haven' seen it on the 1 this afternoon so may have been on the 126 all day :)
