I saw three Coventry E400s coming south over the Thelwall viaduct on the M6 at about 1030 this morning - I couldn't catch the numbers.

They were 4991, 4992 & 4993 :)

Not so surprising the E400 was the subject of "How It's Made"'s Double Decker bus build.

Do you think there will be anymore 64 plates buses coming or is the next batch due when the 15 plates arrive

about half an hour ago I saw an E400 parked up by the Birmingham Test Centre on Wharton street (near star city), too far away to get an id and was in a rush to get me lunch at the cafe, and by the time id finished it had gone already

If the January date for Platinum services is correct, then yes, more will be 64 plates.

Do you know which routes these higher spec services will be?

Walsall Road 51/X51 which may now include the  997 as the X51/997 will interwork from end of Oct

900 & 957

One would think that the 97 would get the 900/957 buses to replace the Tridents as the 97 is one of the premier services due to it being 24hrs.

I don't think there would be enough to upgrade the 97, Pershore Road or something though?

The 94 is being upgraded towards the latter half of the year. Cast offs I suspect but that what an email from NXWM said.

These will be the select 'upgraded' services operating along Centro's designated 'gold corridors' as has been previously discussed here.

My fitness first branch has platinum status but looking at the state if it, means jack. Not being hinting at anything lol.
