Has Redditch depot had some work done to it recently ? I.e. it looks as though some work's been done on the bank to bottom parking area

I haven't commented on the condition of Diamond vehicles before, but seeing 30404 today I felt I must say something. 30404 (YJ61 CHH) is an Optare Versa in Signature livery. I saw it twice today on the 70 service in Redditch. It looked a disgrace, really dirty and grubby with brown stains all along the side and low at the back as if there could be something amiss with the suspension.

PO58KPU appears to have retained its red roof. ???

The majority of repaints don't get their roofs painted.

40631 was on a school run in Redditch again this morning (S77) so it looks as if this vehicle is on loan from, or transferred to, Redditch from Tividale.

32219- spent most if not all of the day on Evesham Road by the Bridage Surgery, one would assume it had broken down.

The 82 and 88 don't interwork apart from one board in the day I think. @Matt.N0056 or @MW can clarify.

There is a bit of inter working- mainly in the afternoon

MW · May 23, 2018, 09:56:39 PM

88/S11/S15 interwork between 9.30 and 15.00

Outside of those times there's a few buses that do some interwork. I'm fact there's only one all day bus on the 82.
