309, W409 JAT just went past my house on Tennyson Way, Offmore!!! I am utterly gobsmacked  due to the fact Whittle don't run up here.........
Will What time was that  I missed it  which way was it going  towards the Birmingham road or the Bromsgrove road ,over the last couple of weeks  I have seen several first buses on  offmore   . back to whittles maybe they might be starting on the 10 again  ?

Just after 12 Cedric and it was going towards Borrington Road from the Husum Way end of Offmore
will just been looking on the worcetershire county council website  the are sone details of the 1/9/14 changes  . and one I have seen is whittles are taking over the 833 school service  which comes through offmore  from chaddesdley  to wolverley school

Bewdley - Birchen Coppice - Kidderminster (Circular) 2A the 2C runs the reveres  way run    and the go through stourport  so is this why  they are coming of   the 3.

Still can't think why W409 JAT was on Offmore though I mean theres no schools in (obviously) so it couldn't of been a private contract the ONLY thing I can think of is the 192 made a diversion from Birmingham Road down Husum Way and then along Tennyson Way probably because of traffic if nothing else

EYMS fleet news for September 2014

309 W409 JAT has returned to Hull from loan.

169 W694 EOP has been listed as delicensed (although I saw it today or yesterday in Kidderminster).

This would be the result of Whittle PVR reducing by 2 buses after the September changes.


Interestingly it now looks as though 163 Y214 HWJ is staying (was in service today), although 162 Y213 HWJ never came back.

Has anyone seen 164 GK03 NFT recently? It doesn't seem to see much use.
