Pensnett Garage

[2206]

@2206 B7's have been appearing on the 129 all week.

So it's usual then?
Didn't know that as it's not on the usual allocations spreadsheet.
Can it be added to the spreadsheet then @Stu ?

Could be going in for repaint?

Could be going in for repaint?

Why debrand it if it was going in for paint? That's a waste of effort. The 222 PVR has reduced by 1 from today, so one less branded bus is needed

Thank You for the clarification @Tony are the weekend no 9 night buses going to use the existing E400s or use a single decker to see how many people will use it?

Not that it affected me as I wasn't waiting for it, but the 0755 244 went past the War Lane / Fellows Lane stop towards QE completely packed this morning. With a 30 min frequency, not great for those who were waiting. Do the peak hour 244s generally cope with the passenger loadings on the section of the route between Quinton and the QE?

No they don't. The garage are attempting to do something about it, although personally I can't see it happening.

there should be a dupe on around that time so two buses run together @pndriver
