Noteworthy Workings - May 2014

[Sh4318]

There was a B7 on the 141 yesterday as well

[Tony]

PB bendi 6023 working along Springfield Road, Walmley at 1520 on a schools service.

That is actually a scheduled working, but because PB seem to have not been able to get bendis fit for service it was not very often allocated. There does seem to have been a concerted effort to get the bendis fit again lately with the 67 back to 100% bendi several days in the last two weeks

Why do PB seem to be having so many problems with the Bendis Tony?

They don't at the moment. So far today every 67 has been operated by a bendibus and 6026 is off to do the Sutton School, 6022 is the only one that hasn't been out today

4485 may be on the 33 all day as a change bus. Saw it around 11am. Not the usual peak working off the schools, as that was a TWM liveried ALX400.

It has been on there most of the day. Should be in City by now

May I rephrase that question, just out of curiosity, to 'why were PB having problems with the Bendies?'
