Electric Buses

[Wba_lad]

Perhaps you saw a brand new delivery or an unbranded electric being moved between garages. Either way, E177 was branded since at least yesterday, maybe earlier.

THANKYOUUUUUUU!!!!  Omg you have just proved a point, so @Tony what was the electric you took down the M6 today which was unbranded.

I'm pretty sure he took E177 to Wolverhampton and brought back an unbranded one E174 to BC

Thankyou, we got there in the end I only asked a simple question I didn't want to cause all this, I knew it wasent E177 I seen that's all I didn't mean anything bad.

That's not causing harm, anyway all I want to know was E177 taken off the M6 to BC and then branded up? As when I seen it it was unbranded.

@ Wba_lad - yes it is causing harm, because numerous members are getting fed up with your frequent bickering, the amount of posts you make per day, admins are getting regular complaints & now you're suggesting Tony's not telling the truth (this won't do you any favours...)

Fyi - Tony doesn't have to tell you anything at all.

I didn't mean to cause any harm, I asked a simple question and it's frustrating when I know what I saw and I'm being called a liar. I'll try and stop bickering, i thought i was allowed to post as much as i wanted as long as it's in the correct thread is this not correct?

Why do you feel the need to know what every bus is doing, when, where & why? Its no ones business but NX's. 

There's posting what you want & there's posting for the sake of it, waffling & posting things without checking your facts first.

I think you need to remind yourself of the forum rules.

On the red livery which you claim you didn't see

@Tony I'd like to apologise! I've just seen E167 again at Scott Arms today heading towards West Brom I think, or atleast it turned on to Newton Road. And yes, there is a lot of red on it so I stand corrected.

Thank you.

Yesterday the original query was a branded bus at Great Barr, then Motorway, the branded bus, and the only one I drove through Great Barr on the motorway was E177 (J6-J11). E174 which was obviously the second one seen was driven to Birmingham down Walsall Road, not the M6

I appologise for accusing you of lying, the way I worded it was not that you wasent driving it, I ment it was not the one I seen, hopefully you understand what I mean and didn't mean to annoy you yesterday, I was just getting irritated as the one I seen was unbranded. Again I apologise

Is there any possibility that any of the ten Electrics which have been taxed will enter service before March?

I'm guessing that E174-E217 will be re-registered as 24 plates along with E218-E243, which judging by Flickr photos appear to be ready to be delivered.

And then there's E244-E333 to follow of course.

According to a post I saw elsewhere, which I can't find now, it was claimed that they wouldn't be used in service until March.

Vehicles would need to be taxed anyway, even if they're just shuffling to and from BC where I presume they're getting livery applied and equipment installed. As well as those being utilised for driver type-training.

Only E164-E173 are taxed, I have to move all the others around on Trade Plates

Ah thanks, good to know that!

Why don't you put the 10 taxed ones into YW and move 10 of their diesel's out as a temporary measure to ease the DD shortage
