4195 I believe- and 758 is Carla. Long time since a y reg been on 129. PN doing rail replacement? Or any other reason for this?

very doubtful it was 4195 it's not on the road

4195 is withdrawn, 758 was a replacement and the actual 41## trident you saw was a one of a kind trident

PE must have enough 44** Tridents for their City routes that have Tridents, hence why Mr 4194 said that 4195 is unusual on the 129 as PE normally have enough compliant Tridents for them but today they must of been a few short.

On the NX website it says the 129 is still operated by WB.

I didn't say anything about it being unusual/not being unusual, what I was saying was its not a rule breaker as the 129 is only every half hour so doesn't need compliant buses as he said a "rule breaker" was on the 129.

Carla and rule breaker on 129

And as the bus was actually 4185 which is Euro 4 it's allowed into Birmingham on any route, so the description is way off mark

Using the fleet list I saw the bus ended in a 5, and presumed it was 4195 as there is no other vehicles allocated to PN that are 41*5 tridents

There have probably been quite a lot of changes since the last update, no doubt to be disclosed soon.

And btw, you Pensnett thread contributors have been a bit off the mark this year - only 64 new pages of items - target was 100 I thought. 64% isn't even a distinction (in old money) 😀

Surprised no-one has noticed the unusual vehicle allocation for the 9 today which is done to solve an operational problem.

All of the ex BC Tridents 4439-43 are on there along with 2094

Most Interesting, are all the ex BC Tridents being on the route co-incidental, as in the others Tridents are booked elsewhere or were they purposely put on there ?

May I also ask, whats the Operational Problem ?

And 4428

Have PN sent mmcs elsewhere then? As PN have pretty much all vehicles as compliant?

4439-4443 & 2094 have to be on the 9 at the moment. The displaced vehicles are obviously running else where including 3 Streetdecks on the 246

So is this problem should be rectified by tommorow?
