E127

E127 out today, not tracking, so just E104 not yet in service. This one is the trial bus for the new digital radio system at Coventry so don't have a date for it to enter service yet

Very little. Coventry garage regularly run 100% of their mileage now, and for the first time since any of us can remember on a weekday Perry Barr didn't have a single loss of mileage last Friday

Hi All

Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere. I am an out of town enthusiast planning to visit the city soon to look at the electrics. I note that E127 hasnt tracked for sometime. Is there a reason for this? Thanks
