Maybe PN will gain tridents to replace all 15** mercs Just a thought, would certainly count as Better Buses (Wheel Chair ramps, more capacity)

I actually hope they don't get rid of the 15** mercs, think some of them are in better condition than the older ones.

Love ones like 1515 and 1540, but to me 1633, 1645 & the 17** are just rubbish, they sound awful and just rattle to death.

I would think Some B6LE could transferred to West Bromwich for replace Dennis single Decker Reg "W". And Some B6LE to WN and replace Trident and Trident to PE for upgrade few route including 3-4 mercs could start withdrawn any in poor condition and 3 mercs withdrawn - 1517, 1537, and 1644.

Couldn't agree more Stu - 1515 and 1540 are probably my two favourite Mercs, glad to see someone else shares my opinion

There are still good newer Mercs such as 1628 and 1649 though

Yes i take your point on board but can you see them just transfering a small amout say 3-5 from a big batch and if a large quantity transfered what would replace the tridents at WN. Tbh WN need there tridents now the 43**, 4135 and some mercs have gone now.

new buses for the 59 or 126 next year  ;)

Transferring 4535 - 4539 wouldn't really affect the fleetnumbers that much though would it. Wolverhampton wouldn't really miss 5 Tridents; as I said, the 25/27/27A would just revert back to single decker operation

[Trident 4609]

I do like some of the mercs at PE (The ones mentioned above by matt) so i wouldn't want them to go yet aswell.

From how i see it it is and how it will stay for thr time being is:

4135,4193-4202 to PE and mainly allocated to 246.

Mercs onto the 243/4 and other B6 workings

And also as discussede many times already 555 to WN and 4135 to PE

The remaining B6's withdrawn.

I spotted 554 on the 243/4 late this afternoon by the way. So which ones are left?

I wouldn't swap tridents for snything else on the 59 ;)

I can maybe see PE getting more tridents from Either WN or another garage the 300 strong bus order starts to arrive. What i am saying is i can't really see WN tridents just transfering like that.

I can see it happening as it has already happened! 4135 for 555 remember - just the first B6 to transfer to WN

[Trident 4609]

Well i was expecting 4135 to transfer elsewhere anyway after the hybrids came as it was just pointless having a singular 41** trident at WN. At least it means 4135 not having to enter Walsall!

Just as pointless as just a singular B6 transferring to Wolverhampton

Send 4609 (sorry Nathan) to BC, and an early BC Trident to PE.

Why? No offense but that makes even less sense than sending 4535-9 to PE

[Ashley 4569]

The routes where WBs darts operate cant accomidate B6LEs as has been pointed out in the past, 1537 was withdrawn a good while ago so dont know where you plucked that number from

Any news on 4200 and 4201, when are they moving down to the farm?
