When I need a good laugh in troubled times I always head for the PE thread. It's like a mother's meeting.

What's on the 244 today Ada?
Oh it's a BUS Edith, you wouldn't get your boots on!
They're RARE on the 244 Ada, usually it's a BUS...
I thought they were, I was only saying to Reene the other day.
Oh yes, now Reene says she once saw a BUS on the 244...

No offence to people working at PE, but this depot is a right dump. There's literally some toilets and a couple of vending machines.

There used to be 3 vending machines!

LOL so much I may prolapse

Especially as my last comment took this thread of mystery and intrigue onto its 401st page!

[Stuharris 6360]

So we are now on page 401 and all we have found out in the last page is that PE used to have 3 vending machines and now they have 2.

No wonder the Pensnett Garage thread gets so much stick!  ??? ??? ??? ???

My understanding of pensnett garage it's a low cost operation, buses kept outside rather than under roof which costs rates, and the multitude of porta cabins also cost cause of its temporary nature does not incur cost of rates. The drivers don't even get travelling time hence why they have really crap dutys from what I,m told.  If any of this incorrect please enlighten me this what I heard back in my hockley days when pensnett garage opened.

I do agree with some there is far to much crap on here.

It used to be a low cost operation with drives on different contracts, but that was back in the days of Travel Merry Hill. There should be no difference between Pensnett and any other garage now. And it's been like that for quite a few years I believe.

I'm pretty sure I saw 1518 earlier parked facing the back fence suggesting it is now withdrawn.
