Quote from: ellspurs on May 26, 2025, 03:09:01 PMI followed an E200 (I think it was a Short Boi) struggle up Powke Lane on the 3 on Saturday. I was wondering if those buses were generally underpowered, or if that was expected.
Pn not got any short enviro 200s any more

Oh ok, I mostly saw it from behind and thought it were like the short ones they have on the 96 now by where I live.

Looking on bustimes it seems to be 869. Do those types generally struggle up Powke Lane?

Passing a 15 earlier, I noticed the destination blinds (not copied over from WN because it's scrolling) lists Wombourne as a via place
Local routes are the PN 7, WN 8, 25 and 242 (mainly the 8)
Also regularly use the 17

Are 871 & 874 any closer to having NXC vinyls & branding removed?

Thought the idea of having a uniform livery was that buses could easily & quickly be re-branded

The revised stickers were ordered. As has been seen E234 & E289 were done at BC this week. Z4001; Z4006; Z4007 at Coventry should be the next ones corrected
