Quote from: BlackCountryBusSpotter on May 13, 2024, 10:22:08 PMTrue either way we know that WA have lost an Omnilink
They've gained one, 1887 has returned (assuming) as a replacement for 1846.

1887 was a long term loan to WB with 1860 1860 came back first 1887 presumably yes to replace 1846, 4696 might be on loan to cover for 4959

1804 has also now transferred to Walsall this could also be a replacement.

Yes i would say it is. 4696 is a loan replacement for 4959 and 1804 and 1887 replace 1846

1804 has transferred,  but 4696 is just an odd short term loan cover, not a replacement for 4959

I meant on loan 4696 is a loan replacement as I wouldn't expect one Gemini just to transfer to Walsall. Otherwise they would have only 6761 and WA are short of Double Deckers so that was I expecting 4696 to be the loan replacement of 4959

As I said it is NOT a replacement for 4959

BlackCountryBusSpotter

Fair enough is 4959 being repaired or is it going for Scrap

If 1804 has transferred I'm guessing 1805 will also go to Walsall aswell to rid of the omnilinks In AG?

Went on bus times and 6744 was tracking as the first bus on the 4 service. Definitely a mistake as double deckers cannot run on that service.

If you have a look at the map you will see it clearly isn't. 

It's not a 'mistake' the 4 is always used to check replacement ticket machines and new destination programming as it is the easiest service number to type in.

1856 broke down today in oldbury interchange, RS had to come out and recover it, it had a air leak on the breaks.

Out of habit of doing it, I used by nbus swift pass in Cannock on the X51, and it accepted it. I didn't think they accepted it outside of the county?
Local routes are the PN 7, WN 8, 25 and 242 (mainly the 8)
Also regularly use the PN 2, PN 2A and WN 82
Local rail station is Stourbridge Town, 139s 😍
