Both are for Tividale.

Yeah I seen 32296 in stone cross last night was suprised I did think what it was when I looked on bus times and seen the reg I thought I'm pretty sure that was on a warranty loan before.

It seems they've been rushed in to service, they were only acquired Monday this week. 

It was on loan for Warranty Cover via Wrightbus last time, there is a picture in my original post you quoted

Would it ever be possible to have one of the 2009 Enviro 200s on the A15 route or is it strictly certain types of vehicles?

Well the A15 is ran from Redditch and those E200's are at Tividale.

We had one of them on loan for a bit, can't remeber of the top of my head which one it was though. Never ended up on any solihull services though.

I know it would be impossible but I would love to see my favourite buses in the fleet like the wright eclipse urbans and the plaxton centros on the A15

32297 is out on the 4H it is tracking on two routes so it is not on the 18, possible the new wheel front streetlite on the 18?

Quote from: Simon Dunn on June 14, 2024, 05:55:29 AMI would imagine we will use either a Mellor or a Illesbus on 303.
I understand the 65 goes through a bridge, and this will need to be either a Solo or a Small Enviro.
63/64 there is no specific allocation.

Although there ment to be one at diamond tividale but the WF streetlites also fit under the bridge at Fordhouses
