You prefer e200 to b7rle? Are you ok?

@Trident 4194 Did I say that? Yes I'm fine thank you.

And most AG drivers actually give E200MMCs a glowing report

I was on 2203 yesterday and while the start - stop thing gets getting used to with some passengers being puzzled, it gives a smooth ride, shame about the appearance !

They haven't sampled the standard e200 either?

Volvo and Scania are the way forward! :D

Good luck with getting Scania's, as unless the need to be gas powered you've got two hopes, Bob hope & no hope  ;)

I'd expect Dundee to gain a small batch of new double deckers (max 10)

I don't know really what the fleet is like up in Dundee, but I may not rule out the possibility of some new single-decks up there for certain routes, if there are still single-decks to be withdrawn. The West Midlands/Coventry single-deck fleet is fairly modern now, so unless new single-decks were bought in to upgrade routes such as the 4 here, some new single-decks could go direct to Dundee to withdraw older ones there.
My locals:
2 - Birmingham to Maypole | 3 - Birmingham to Yardley Wood
11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath

BK63 YWP

Platinums on the 4/4H/4M or maybe the X96s (Streetlites xD)
The Funny sounding Enviro 400

15 Wolverhampton to Merry Hill
15A Wolverhampton Merry Hill
16 Wolverhampton to Stourbridge

X10 Gornal Wood

The remaining single deckers in Dundee need to go by 31st Dec 2015 due to being non DDA, the next oldest ones will then be same as NXWM i.e. 2006 B7RLE's

I never said I didn't like them!!

What I said was I do not like either the NORMAL E200 or B7RLE

Dundee needs more double deckers, not singles

New E200MMC for the 4 would be a good shout, release some Scanias for elsewhere although I can't really imagine where beyond Pensnett or Wolves

Please we don't want that Scania sh** at Pensnett.
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

I don't think Pensnett would get any Omnilinks

Scanias aren't shit. The ex AG batch at WB are in great nick and will only get better being in Crimson.

Next.
