@Jack there are not enough platinums for the X10 so streetdecks filled the void with standard MMCs and tridents are the last resort.

@karl724223 is 6123/4 along side the streetdecks going to be used for the X10 to cover the new extension

Well there not platinum vehicles so they shouldn't be as extras!! I believe to be added to the 9. They need their branding changing I would think seemed weird seeing blue on the Hagley road

Its the same for the X12.
With at least one Gemini on there everyday.

On the other hand though, the passengers on the X10 and X12 aren't paying extra for a platinum vehicle.
If they don't have enough platinums, i'm sure the passengers would rather a Gemini/Streetdeck is used that gets them to there destination, rather than NX failing to operate trips because they don't have enough platinums to operate them.

Why should I have to skim through pages just to find it?
Spreadsheet doesn't read Streetdeck's, only Platinums and Tridents.

And why should I have to skim through different threads to look for changes that need to be made to the spreadsheet?

If people don't report things that need to be corrected in the relevant topic, then it won't get changed.

@karl724223 please do me a favour, and have a look through the Pensnett allocations on the Usual Workings spreadsheet, and let me know if there is anything else incorrect that needs amending, thank you.

Jack; I'm asking you to show some respect please. Stu does this and takes his own time doing it. I'm sure he's got other commitments in life and can't be constantly editing it.

You're self entitled behaviour doesn't help fix the inaccurate data. This isn't the first time you've shown attitude towards the Noteworthy spreadsheet.

will probably be better to check after the 2/9/18 number and route changes

Surely Tridents are no longer noteworthy on the X96? After losing B7RLEs for Tridents, and with the number changing the branded buses may get de-branded. I can see it converting to deckers. They have been reported nearly every day this week.

I believe the 12 (and 12A?) are to become double-deck operated, which might explain the influx of Tridents replacing Eclipse 2s. No idea yet about the 8 (X96).

With buses moving between garages ahead of next weekend's changes, "all bets are off" surely regarding Noteworthy Workings.

If you've seen a bus with the BMet variant of Stourbridge College advertising on 6105 & 6110. get a good picture of the advert if you see it.

This is 6105 as i couldn't get a better photo as it was blurred.
