Number 6 arrived on Thursday afternoon (69452) and was half-dressed by end of play on Friday. It entered service on Monday morning.

Cheers for the info ! I must have seen it on one of its first journeys.

Just a thought, if Kevs take a liking to stage work, they would be well suited to take over the 147 service to Romsley as their depot is on the route. :idea: I have just seen a post on Tony Hunters West Midlands Bus Photo's site stating that Kev's are taking over the operation of the 147 in Februar...

Am I correct in saying there are still just six new ones in service ?? Any more close to appearing ?? Thanks in advance for any updates.

After a brisk walk into Bromsgrove just after mid - day , it would appear that all services were back running by then ,144's both ways and 202's and 145's from the north of the county were seen.

Another Green Volvo has arrived at Worcester depot.

Is it out and about yet ??

. . . . . . a Diamond bus caused havoc in the Kidderminster area by depositing leaking fuel on roads this morning. I heard this mentioned on the two pm news, I think that the No 2 service was mentioned and it appears that the "leak" went on for miles as opposed to yards . . . . so much so...

The interesting combination of a silver liveried Diamond bus with Hanson fleet names on the side doing a 43 from Bromsgrove to Redditch today certainly caused some bewilderment earlier . . . . And with Midland Red buses turning green . . . . . . . .

"BYM" on the 12.16 from Bromsgrove to Brum today , followed by "BYN" on the 12.46. The white destination displays look bright even in daylight.

Might end up with an Atlantean . . . . . . . . I got confused all those years back !!
