Note the 10 vehicle operating centre at Pensnett

Is the 10 vehicle OC at PN replacing the Stourbridge yard that was used?

Yes definitely and Ring & Ride vehicles are still using it, saw one yesterday.
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

To save bumping a topic that hasn't been used for months,

went on PN827 today. Boy this is a poor bus, climbing up Grange Lane, think a snail could have done it quicker.

Are all the early Enviro 200s that bad having spent years on the 222 (2) or was I just unlucky?

I can't remember which one I went on on the 19. But the acceleration of it was awful, in fact dangerous pulling off an island - a car almost went into the side of it if he didn't stop. Once they got up to speed they seem very nippy

4425 sat by ridgeway avenue on way to Stourbridge on 9. Completely empty. I've noticed a b7RLE sat there at this time before. Is this journey meant to start on spies lane?
