However... The 481 to Cheltenham on Mondays is doing very well so expect it to make a return one day a week soon (There has been standing passengers recently, so a larger vehicle is needed).

There is talk of a launch event but nothing has been decided yet. Or if it has been decided they haven't told me!

Thank you, Sir !

I keep seeing 66694 (Village Links) on services in + around Worcester, but I've not been about when ( and IF ) it's been on the 417.

Does anyone know if it's currently used on Village Links services at all ?

I'm wondering if there be any kind of public promotional event for the 35, or for the refurbished Mercs in general ?
….. and will all of them have retrimmed seats ?

That's a surprise, I didn't expect any of the older ones for a few weeks (at least) ! We certainly have had a lot of vehicle changes and investment, since Mr.Eggleton took the helm !

I also admire changes, when I can see they improve efficiency.

"Sad for me" is that we will have lost all three ex-London Tridents, with none being replaced by DDs.

Routes and times for the S3 and S4 services to Blessed Edwards School have changed to try and even out the loadings. The S4 now starts in Fernhill Heath to take the pressure off the S2, and the S3 now runs via Millwood Drive to replace that part of the old S4 route. Thanks for that info. Adam. Link...

Many Johnson's coaches in Worcester over the last few days for the Worcester University Graduation Ceremonies at the Cathedral. I didn't get a chance to get any photos, sorry. Earlier in the week, one of them got stuck, - in All Saint's Road, where there were already roadworks closing one lane -- -...

I see in the current fleet list, Adam, that you have this listed as "withdrawn", rather than "in store".

I believe this is the accident damaged one, and that it went to (Plaxtons ?)
for repair ?

Do you know if that repair is proceeding, or is it to be scrapped ?
