Walsall Garage

Just out of interest what makes you say they are leaving anytime soon?

I saw on a YouTube video that they will be leaving Walsall soon, so I just came here to check if it was true and if there are any more details about it

When they are not needed there.
Because they are not needed there

What are Walsall garage having in place of these buses when they leave?

Thete are no plans for them to leave that rumour has been going around since the hydrogens came it's all just hear say. Even if they were to leave Tony will never disclose any transfers before they Happen.

Would've thought they would replace Walsall's remaining 43xx Tridents at least internally, instead of shipping them off elsewhere?

Thank you, this is the answer I was looking for.

6732 just gone past me in Ablewell St not in service with his hazard warning lights on doing a steady 10mph so obviously he can't go any faster than that.

limp mode, a lot of buses struggling with the heat already and the worst is yet to come

What are the current statuses of these 3 heritage buses  119L; 3035; 3997 ?

They were in paint a few weeks ago, according to Tony's list, but don't appear to be on recent lists.

I'm guessing more internal / mechanical work is being done, so they'll be a long time before they start appearing in public.

Are they normally garaged at Walsall?

Was on 4735 a couple days ago and was sitting on the bottom deck back row and the seat was EXTREMELY hot, to the point where it was very uncomfortable. The other passenger also on the back row felt the same. Maybe someone should take a look at it or perhaps fix anything if there's a problem

Those seats on the early E400's always do get very hot. It's the summer and you're sitting on the engine?

Fair enough. However I've been on those early E400s many times and it was never as hot as that day! But never mind. Also another question, if the buses are supposed to be named after females, why is it's name Thomas Henry davis?

doesn't mean all the names on the buses have to be women's names. 2154 at CV is named Sean 'Cov' Murphy for example

Ah ok I thought that all buses were women's names. My apologies 

[PB50]

Never seen an E200 on Wa 41 AFAIK.

856 just spotted in Walsall Bus Station.

That will be interacting with the 8 service. You get one occasionally on this.
