@Other Walsall Tony A trident on the 89 is not rare, plus this has already been mentioned in the 'Buses On Loan' thread.

Question: What happened to 4776 being in service ?

[Busman Jamie]

?

[lauren1993]

Is 4776 going to be transferred to Coventry and painted into the new livery to join the rest of its batch seeing as there seems to be a shortage of E400s to cover the 11/11U & 12X.

No, it is staying at Walsall for the college route iirc

[Busman Jamie]

Isn't 4776 1 with a tachograph in?

Tony had recently provided a list of tacho fitted buses.

"AG 2201/2 & 2120 have tachographs
BC have 6701/2; 4634 & a B7RLE
PB have 4777-81 & 1847 (not sure if 1844-6 have current tachos)
YW have 6147/8 & 3225
WA have 4127/8 & 4737; 4776
WN have 862; 863 & a trident
Two of the 47xx E400s transferred to WB have tachos, but they are not currently calibrated, so cannot be used at the moment
CV have two tridents, but they are not currently calibrated"

so no it is not all Platinum vehicles

I've heard this rumor from people at Perry Barr and Walsall too. Apparently it's happening on the 24th of July but I don't know how true it is.

Maybe @Tony  could clarify this for us?

[Stuharris 6360]

Walsall's PVR actually increases on that date, I have to find them some more extra buss

Sure PN will have some more spare Tridents by then Tony!

3 have left PN already before the 4 Streetdecks have entered service, doubt they'll be many more to spare

true @Winston , but none left when the 297 was lost, so I make that 3 that should be available.

[BK63 YWP]

And more leaving when the X10 starts?

[Stuharris 6360]

And more leaving when the X10 starts?

Wouldn't have thought so as the X10 PVR will be very similar to the 141, cutting the 241 back may through up a bus or two.
