Maybe nxwm first Enviro 200H?

[Liverpool Street]

What will be Pensnett's next batch of new bus? More Enviro 200/400 (Maybe Enviro 300 if nxwm decides to get them) or will it be cascades coming our way

I believe pe are just getting cascades. Interesting point though about e300s and possibly.e500s. Would.they be welcome or is there even a chance of them coming over?

E500's.

No.

Pensnett still need replacements for the Mercs recently withdrawn. I suspect these will be a couple more tridents from BC

Not necessarily. The 297 was curtailed & only replaced in part, the 205 was reduced with the Blacheath - Dudley section tagging on to the 127 & WB. Pensnett now have a lower Pvr

I had a couple of current model e300's at first Bolton earlier in the year, no power at all even on flat roads, felt as cheap as they looked, but that's my view, if we have any here then so be it

The lack of power will be down to the way the engine management systems are setup by First Group to achieve maximum fuel efficiency.

1543 is currently parked tight up against 1633 at Pensnett but with rear facing the fence. Not sure if withdrawn or just having a day off?

[domino.99]

Just to ask wasn't one of the versions of 1908 an enviro 300?

[Trident 4609]

Correct. Then another was the white B7RLE demonstator then you had the MCV bodied B7RLE

Last week 4202 and 4194 was in mechanical bays
4194 black smoke coming out
4202 with its engine but went out as it came to the end of my depot visit

4194 was not well the previous week when i saw it! Was making such a racket!

4353 must be the next PE bus in for repaint, was on the 141 today looking an absolute state, probably one of the scruffiest NXWM buses to enter Birmingham city centre today!

I presume so as there are only a couple left in TWM livery at PE

[Ashley]

4349 and 4353 are the last two to be done

Is 1543 withdrawn or still a runner?
