Re: At last a vehicle at Worcester that isn’t a Streetshite

ALSO, - I believe there is an age limit for D'Deckers used on the Hay on Wye Festival services, -- so is THIS the year we hand over the work to Stagecoach ??

Re: At last a vehicle at Worcester that isn’t a Streetshite

I've just driven past the "patch" and noticed the rear of one of the E300 (Mkll)s, and thought how suitable it looks for just "slapping on" a DIAMOND sticker ! I've wanted WR to have E400s ever since First started buying them in 2005, but I will miss seeing the StreetDecks. From ...

Re: Funding for Worcestershire Transport

Thanks Tim and Adam for those helpful replies.

I still see "too many negatives", so I hope that the current First management are a lot more positive thinking than me :D ( - despite the StreetLites ! )

Re: Vehicle Replacements 2024

StreetLite 47631 has just been transferred here according to bustimes.org :cry: Excuse me for "quoting myself" but but I think it's appropriate to add here that 47640+42 have now also been added. A photo of them at WR has just appeared on Facebook. :cry: :cry:

I had hoped that by now we would have been receiving newer, full-size, middle to heavyweight single-deckers sui...

Does anyone know if 32644 is still running around in it's original paint ?? IE -- has it never been repainted ? I've looked at the "willow-leaf, or wand", and I THINK it might be the original "longer, shallower version (?) but I guess it could have received an early repaint with that ...
