I don't see why Pensnett need to loan it, there were plenty of spare Tridents parked in the depot at 8.45am this morning

The wb in merry hill is Helen 4962 is it or does 4962 front display very dim

4962's dim display: Been like that ever since it entered service.

And they didn't even have to program the displays (if my theory is right)

Thats a strange one. I thought west brom only ran a pensnett service early morning and then went on to the 74?

Not noteworthy in any sense, but 4248 is on the 82/87. Been a while since I last saw a ALX400 on there.

With the influx of Enviros that have come into WB, I suppose chances of seeing a B7TL vehicle on the route was always going to be minimal although nice to know they sometimea make their way on their

Ouch! Bit of a nasty one there. I presume the driver of 4823 misjudged the amount of space they had and just turned in too tightly?

Seems like it, plus the 74 is at an angle which would not have helped. It is an awful stop when two or three buses are already there, say when a 110, 74 and 16 are all there at the same time.

Looks like there is a President on the 74/75 from that picture
Looks like it is either 4044 or, 4056? Dose anyone know which one it is?

Jack6101 · September 21, 2015, 05:56:57 PM

I think 4969 has been in service a whole year as well today
