when can pensnett have one to play with

6777 was in dudley at 4 on 126 Wolverhampton

[Tony]

It's not unknown - previous batches of E400s had later numbered vehicles delivered out of sequence (e.g Coventry in advance of some of the West Bromwich ones in the 49xx series). It depends how NXWM have specified them to arrive.

The reason for the out of sequence deliveries last year and this year is nothing sinister, It is purely because Alexander Dennis have the vehicles coming down two production lines

6779 has come out for the first time, on the 126.

WOW they look even better in the dark.

Thanks for the info Tony - sounds like they could be arriving even quicker. Ps I wasn't suggesting anything sinister, merely that out of sequence delivery had occurred before from AD.

Most (all?) 529 Platinums have an 'Investing in the Black Country'  banner on a ns window.

Normally walk to work with someone who's partner is a PB driver, & he apparantly had a text while on holiday, informing him about Platinium training.

Wonder what the Suttons branding will be? An electric blue would be awesome and suit the platinum livery

Sutton already has a branding colour

Could be a similar shade to the 110 Sapphire livery to match that corridor but knowing us lot it will be another shade of green like all the other branded Platinum's apart from the 529 @Chris

Won't the current black/blue branding look lost against the dark Platinum livery?

[monkeyjoe]

So I suspect that the 82/87 will get the Sutton cast offs as nxwm tend to have a habit of re distributing to routes that have had re hashes ( what ever you want to call it) months apart lol

[RW]

Will the 907 be in the Sutton Platinum mix?

[monkeyjoe]

If it is that will definitely take the mick in my humble view, it shouldn't be
