Notices up on WB buses about the 42/43 from September, 3 separate notices about the service, the ticket validity, and contactless payment
You can guarantee people won't read them but at least they're getting the message out

I thought the 42/43 were re-launching from Monday (19th August), 31/32 was from 2nd Sept

Just add the gold puma stripe from Crimson livery then it's not million miles away.
I assume NX will provide 8 enviro 200s for the 42/43
What will diamond supply, my guess  2 b7s, 2 solos, enviro 200s,  2 enviro 300s , for variety

You guess wrong, 6 x 62 plate B7RLE/Wright are being re-branded in TfWM livery (much better than E200's)

6 E200s from NX (811-816)
6 B7RLES from Diamond (30525-7; 30924-6)

Most of the Diamond contribution will be heading there from Bristol if not already there.
Don't judge me until you've walked in my size ten shoes.

No it's not. I've already posted the fleet numbers. They are all coming from Hounslow, released by the new Streetlites off the 555

No, they have come from Hallmark, Heathrow released by 9 new WF/DF Streetlites.

That's a turn up for the book - Diamond providing a better calibre or vehicle than NXWM.

Really? The 4H has the 4 13 reg b7RLES as well as 07 reg ones, compared with nx who use 09 plate scans and 06/56 plate B7RLES?

I was thinking in terms of the overall fleets in general rather than one or two routes. The Scanias and older B7RLEs are decent enough buses - light years ahead of the shockingly bad E200.

I love Walsall buses

The 42/43 has been enviro 200 since they have arrived
