I agree about the 55. They get way overcrowded to the point the Scanias can't cope. Swapping with the 28 at PB may not be a bad idea but then what route at PB would then go single decker to allow the 55 to be operated by deckers?
Local Routes: 002, 39/39A, X21, 46, 76.
Localish Routes: 18, 23, X22.

Double deck 55 is not the only solution.

Alternatives could be :-

a) increase the frequency of the 55
b) increase the frequency of the 94
c) add morning peak workings from Fox & Goose to Birmingham.

I can only assume because this corridor isn't competing with rail they don't give a toss or lack of investment in this area vs others is propping up margins

Why have they put advert borders on the 2018 platinums

@BH2004 You didn't need to start a new thread,
there was already an existing one concerning all new deliveries,

As you all probably know NXWM have ordered their new batch of platinums

Does anyone know what garages they are going to

Well yes. Those who it concerns do.

Spotters. No. It would generally be posted if it was able to be broadcast, why the big rush to know is beyond me. I'm sure wherever they go... certain people will be quick to find them.

What's wrong with people wanting to know, that's why we come on here to get juicy insider bits. Some unnecessary attitude sometimes to be honest.

I'm sorry, but it's not attitude at all. I'm stating it as it is, i haven't had a go or breathe down anyones neck. The whole point is that info like that is confidential. People on here know by now that such 'juicy gossip' isn't going to be disclosed on here as said by Tony numerous times.

The plan is possibly going to be changed again I heard last night, so even if I did post it then it might be wrong
