1899 is back at Walsall so not quite sure what the gen is with geminis and route branding etc. The 53 plate Geminis at WB are of a poor presentational standard, mismatches of trim, paintwork, panelling, connection bars and years of vandalism just being ignored, hopefully Walsall do something with them this time round

andyr

Or perhapes send them back to WB for them to sort them out and then WA except them..why should years of neglect come out of WA budget to correct.?.

Not too sad to see 1899 go back to WA - not quite up to YW Scanias standards - the gearbox is jumpy at lower speeds and suspension at the rear needs some attention. It is fast, but is not as good as YW's current batch of Scanias.

The Geminis are a mess - worse than the Tridents in terms of presentation at the minute. AG's are similar - mismatches of panel colours and seat covers. Vandalism though is lower at AG and is dealt with pretty well. The majority of the Geminis need pushing through the refurb shop ASAP after the TWM livery has finally been eradicated.

1899 is still at Yardley Wood, was on the 6 in Birmingham at 8pm tonight

Thanks John. Must just have been a short loan Ashley was on about.

1763 on the board that starts 0659 313 from Walsall.

(Seems to be more regular a B7LRE on this one, so is it worth mentioning now?)

On Friday 1899
left YW garage at 07:54 and ran to Hawkesley and than at 08:34 returned to Yardley Wood garage arriving back at 08:51. It was then in YW garage until it came out of garage at 14:36 ran private to Solihull and was on the 6 until running back to Yardley Wood garage at 18:53.

Certainly nowhere near Walsall
