Why not the 16 & 101 though?
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

Why are the 16 & 101 having the PE enviros?
Not sure probably to replace gems or tridents

PB don't have any Tridents. Gemini's could possibly cascade to AG to replace Presidents?

What are the PVR's of the 16 and 101 out of interest?

Does anyone think this will co-incide with the rumoured 24 hour operation of the 9. The route pretty much runs 5am to 1am Mon - Sat, so it's already near.

58 - Yardley Swan - Solihull
60 - Birmingham - Cranes Park
99 - Lea Village - Acocks Green
S16 - Yardley Swan - Solihull

So someone sees it on here, posts it on their own twitter account and it is the source?

The actual source is the Directors' Business Brief which is issued to staff each Friday which is presumably where 979 saw it when he first posted it on here

Why would NX decide to extend BY and rise the height in the garage?! No problem with the Scanias at BY and would be an expensive move. I expect the Volvos displaced off the 16 and 101 will be used to replace the Bendi Buses. The freed up Volvos may mean that some PB Geminis may be freed up to go to AG - therefore allowing some Presidents to be withdrawn/go to Dundee.
Or if PB could operate the 8 with the Volvo Alexander types and BY could operate the 28.  ::)

Isn't the PVR of the 9, 19 or 20, so a couple of spare buses for maintenance etc:
