Banga buses

[Ashley 60171]

Last Saturday I had a spin on the Primo DXF.

Absolutely lovely bus compared to when it was at People Movers so that's proof Mr Banga does look after his buses.

unusual bus on 891 today primo running pic on flicr

The driver of V258 DRE on the 530 is wearing a National Express shirt, not sure if that's allowed at all?

What's nx going to do to the driver sack him??

[Westy]

If he's an ex Nx driver, he should have handed it in when he left!

They don't ask for it back. They're sacking that many people. I've still got mine somewhere.

They might be sacking lots of people but the people replacing them aren't exactly top quality either!!
And a diamond driver used to wear a nx fleece for a while

[Westy]

Funnily enough, I saw a delivery driver at our place wearing an Nx fleece a few months back!

I know NXWM can't do anything, but it could perhaps be confusing to customers, plus if it's a TfWM subsidised route, they might not like it either.

TfWM contracts say about bus not being in another operators livery nothing about driver must not be another operators uniform.

I presume you haven't read what your operator needs to do then.

3.3 All drivers must be provided with an appropriate uniform and operators shall use reasonable endeavours to make sure it is worn on duty and maintained in a clean and tidy condition to promote a professional appearance.

Banga's Primo YX60 DXF is on the 530 this morning, usually allocated to the 891.

it can often be found working 530's.  I haven't seen it on the 545 though.

I commute to Wolverhampton and back most days involving changing at Bilston, and I've only seen Solos on there, never seen the Primo on either of those routes.

I have seen it on the 530 a few times but it does sometimes do the 891. Usually the 891 is solo's too.
