Well i am aware of that now thank you!  Wonder where 4202 has got to? Its been gone for months

Am confused a bit, only saw 4202 At PE The week before last.?

Stu, I've got it as being back from refurb as well, although I haven't seen it  ???

4202 arrived at PE on the same day as 4196, but was sent straight for refurb due to it's condition. Reckon its been back for a couple of weeks at least.

Yes I remember, someone has reported seeing it back at PE as I have now it as refurb'd, but I haven't seen it feature in any PE Trident workings / 246 logs etc

Well it hasn't appeared on the 9/141/140/241 or 246 yet so must not be out yet ???

The buses on the 246 today are:

4818, 4201, 4135, 4198, 4196, 4195, 4823, 4193, 4199.

They were in that order around 11am.

That leaves 4197 and 4200 unaccounted for, no doubt one (or both) will turn up on the 9 later.

Thank Karl, must have been a mis-report I saw then.

It must be having more work done than a normal refurb as it has been away some time

I am 99.9% sure i saw 4202 at PE a couple of weeks ago, wonder if it had to be returned to WA for some reason?

4815 back to full power! Fixed that one a lot quicker than 4817.

Also, Pensnett seemed to have a few Mercs out today, with 1520 on the 276, 1649 on the 243/4, and 1665 doing the staff bus

Nice surprise then today. I remember when asking you earlier if you saw any 244's you said they were probably all just B7RLE's but goid to have a change then for once :)

Well I saw 1649 in Halesowen this evening on the 10pm 244 from Dudley and I'm pretty sure that one is a 243 board. Haven't exactly worked out the Sunday evening interworking between 276 and 243/4 yet

I was the first passenger on the very first 9 of the day this morning! (bus was 4806) Came at my stop around 4:06am and rode it to Birmingham and back, getting back to my stop dead on 5am. There were about 15 other passengers on the outbound journey, most alighting in the city centre. 2 passengers got on in the city centre and about 4 more got on along the inbound journey, but as expected the outbound journey was busier.

I then went back to bed ;D

I have done the first 59 from Lichfield Rd near Ashmore Park at 05:08 but that is no where near as early. Anyway at least he can safely say he has done the first 9 ;)
