Correct. Not sure why I got the registration mixed up with the other one @Midland_Buses owns. 😂😂😂

Quote from: Marge559 on October 13, 2024, 04:06:30 PMLove how people are going on the defensive for NX (with incorrect facts being posted) whilst completely missing the point that was originally being made regarding Carolean... :rolleyes:  If you want some irony, Non euro 6 4567 is currently on the 50, let's hope TfWM and BCC have given permission!
See no ones making an issue about that either!

No one is making an issue out of this either Stu basically said I hope Carolean have informed TFWM otherwise they are going to get in Trouble as the Contract asks for Euro 6 Buses. No one is attacking Carolean just merely hoping that he has informed TFWM that he will not be using a Euro 6 bus on some journeys. NX sometimes use Non Euro 6 buses on a route it happens better than No Bus, same here everyone is hoping he has informed TFWM as this bus is better than No Bus turning up.

From the conversation I had with someone, it sounds like TfWM gave the go ahead to use the Euro 3 Volvo B7RLE.

Also regularly use the PN 2, PN 2A and WN 82

I expect them to acquire more Buses as they have 5 I think 2 for the 19 and 1 spare leaving 2 for new routed and 1 needed spare or maybe more needed as service or Spare
