Do some PE Mercs not have Hasbury on their top blind.

Saw 1525 today going up to Hasbury from Halesowen with Halesowen on the blind.

Seems like it. Seen a few display Hasbury and the.majority just show Halesowen via Old Hill

Don't know what happened to the B6 blinds as they had "Hayley Green via Hasbury" on them!

Well is it laziness then, saw 1525 on the 244 again today with Halesowen on the front.

I always thought, if you can display the correct destination, then blank should be displayed.
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

Trident4609 already covered that, but I'd like to add my comment - Dudley area looks different without the B6's. :( I'm just used to seeing B6's in Dudley. I'll miss the B6's serving in Dudley area.

You do miss them around Dudley on all the Pensnett routes. I did like the old 222 and 243 branding on them, but you do see them sometimes on the 27 from Wolverhampton.

A few years ago, with half the yard full of B6's, it looked like that the B6 farewell tour would be from Pensnett. However this will not be the case & even though some will be disappointed, they must now look at other garages like West Bromwich or Wolverhampton.

In total now how many B6LE's are left in Service ?
