pensnett new double deckers this year yes they are getting them this year

Let me guess you work in head office so you know the orders?  Maybe Karl can tell us if this is a load of rubbish? And no it will not be PE that will have the E400s this year!

Am I late or something? Have NXWM placed an order for Mercedes Citaros?

Sadly, sarcasm can't be distinguished on text. It is a joke. :)

pensnett will get the new double deckers i don't know what month i'm all i know is they are going to get them the 9 is a premier route into boot birmingham and to Stourbridge

1. Yes the 9 is a busy route.
2. It's not a premier route
3. Pensnett may get some newer buses this year (maybe they won't) but i'd be doubtfull that they would get brand new deckers, more likely to be enviro 200's if they're 'lucky'

Ex pensnett driver

Can smell bullshit lol

Only more tridents was mentioned the other day to replace mercs when I was talking to the engineering supervisor
And possibly enviro 200 for 243/4

Edited, no personal attacks! Winston

If the 9 is not a Premier route it deff a flagship route for the company but with the new buses if possible they will get new deckers (2nd or 3rd batch) for both 9 and 141 Possible to gone on other routes like 120 and the 140/241 but i can see walsall get new single decker then d/d and then transfer b7's (1750+) to pn

Goodbye Sam, well done on getting back but it never lasts long. Got yourself another ban! Well done.

One thing Daimler Mercedes Benz are good at is producing excellent Diesel engines, I do miss the sound of the 0405n for all its faults you couldn't knock that 12 litre engine.

Stuharris 6360

To be honest the chances of PN getting any further new buses at the moment are very very slim.

With the average age of PN buses being a lot less than it was a few years ago thanks to the removal of the B6s to WN and the withdrawl of many of the Mercs, i cannot see National Express agreeing that there is any need for many more new buses.

My gut feeling is, as Karl says, a few new E200s perhaps for the 243/4 & maybe even the 205. These & a few extra Tridents should mean that PN can get rid of all there remaining Mercs.

If all the remaining buses can be in new livery, it will mean that PN will have quite a smart, modern fleet. (and yes i know the Tridents are quite old, but it is amazing what a coat of paint and some new seat covers can do)

As for the 9, it is really a route of two halves, between Stourbridge & Halesowen to me it is under used, however between Halesowen & City to me it does need more capacity. Maybe NE should consider making it every 12 mins between Stourbridge & Birmingham & every 6 mins between Halesowen & City.
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

Well done! I must be honest if merc's had been mentioned more, I'd have assumed it was Jade/6013 or whoever who had access to a dictionary...
