No. Last two weeks they've appeared quite a bit.

Any bus that is on the 120 will go to Dudley, they don't just do 120E's all day

@Trident 4194 Since when were E200's on the 243/4 rare?!?!?! Loan or not still not rare.

A PENSNETT bus on a PENSNETT route is rare and noteworthy
I had a branded 9 on the 9 today I was  surprised I didn't expect that

Stuharris 6360

What I can't understand is why PE are so short of buses again and having to lend, plus i thought that NE brought the E200s for the 243/4, so why are they turning up on other routes?
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

Because of other buses being off the road at a guess so they send as much out to cover main routes then just get one in.

The main reason for entries on the Unusual Workings thread is:-
Serviceman allocates buses to correct routes.
Driver books on, finds minor defect, driver is given another bus so he leaves garage on time, fault is fixed garage now has a bus of a certain type for a later running board of the wrong type.

Or in the afternoon vehicles which have been having inspections or repairs are available for the afternoon peak boards, but obviously may not be the correct types.

Pensnett are currently one bus down because of the withdrawal of 1594

Could you see if it has the brown strip along the top, if so it's one of 861-870 (I think they're the only ones that have that banner on)
