Repaints & Retrims 2017

[2206]

I thought the 63 already had new buses on it?

61, 63 and 14 plate E400.

[Jack]

Er no.

E400's aren't that old. The 63 gets the odd Trident everyday.

[Tony]

5507 out in service crimson for the first time today on the 24, replaced at Walsall by 4877, so don't bother looking for that one in its wrap any longer

[monkeyjoe]

The 94 has had new buses more recently than the 63

Wow I will look out for next time in Brum

[2206]

Wow I will look out for next time in Brum

Look out for what?
94 - Mostly 2003 Gemini.
63 - Mostly 2012/13/14 E400.

Yes the 94 has had new buses (2003 Tridents) since the 63 last had new buses, but how is that surprising. And it doesn't mean it's using vehicles that are older than whats on the 94.

[MW]

Is it 2002 (Jubilee Line) for the 63 & 2003 (4455-74) for the 94?

[Jack]

Is it 2002 (Jubilee Line) for the 63 & 2003 (4455-74) for the 94?

Yes, 4455-4474 were for the 94. Jubilee line was for the 61 and 63.

I thought the original New buses for the 94 was those that are now on the 97 and arrived branded for the 94 etc in around 2001/2

2003 Tridents. But the Gemini's are the same age and just as smart the Tridents, but the 94 see's 2005 Gemini's on a daily basis, and the E400's which are common, and a ALX400.

The new buses for the 94 (4455-4474) are now branded for the 97 yeah. They're 03 plates.

Before that the 97 had those 41xx Tridents (96/97 branded)

The 97 had OmniLinks 1788-1820 after the 41** Tridents

[MW]

Yeah, I was referring to prior to the 94 in 2003. I should have made that clearer. My mistake.
