Whittles

[Cedric]

exactly the info I was told, think it is a complte shut down though . as far as my friends know there is no  one interested  in  the firm my one friend has left and the other one is going on holiday one the 11th and there is no job when he comes back, would not have minded read the article you talked about but unable to get up online

I can confirm 163 (Y214 HWJ) is still in Kiddy (as I suspected) just seen it go past my house on Offmore, Kidderminster operating the 833 (Wolverley High School - Chaddesley Corbett) school contract.

saw it to will and saw it on the 2c this morning . it is still listed on the EYMS site as been transfered from whittle in april,  but on loan  to whittle  now . even thought it is classed as such we know it never left here or if it did just for a very short time before it came back

I've just read that myself how strange! It's taken them until now (December 2014) to decide to re-paint it and re-instate it back in service after it left Kidderminster earlier this year how bizzare

 Will I  wonder if the  former 161 that went up there will get the same treatment, it did get the front end painted in the  EYMS colours if I remember right , ?

I have been told by a friend of mine that Bennetts Coaches of Gloucester might be taking on one of Whittles NX routes. :)

if Bennettts  do take one of the NX routes  think it would more than likely be  this one  444 Worcester-London  as not to far away  the other routes  are
ones the go into north wales
