Re: Ex Worcester 67646 Crash

This is the second occasion this particular Enviro has had the misfortune of severe damage to the front nearside.

It was involved in a collision back in July 2008 whilst working out of Worcester.

Re: 44511

This was mine for the 1815 Service 144 to Birmingham last night. It had been a faultless drive all afternoon, other than the aforementioned rattles. By Rashwood however, its idle tone was more comparable to a tractor and by the Crown at Wychbold I thought it best to phone it in. Transpires that it w...

Re: Ex-Hereford Solos with Potteries

67643 transferred to First Potteries on Monday (November 21).
Minibus 53064 is indeed its replacement.

As far as I'm aware, 67659 is also currently at Adderley Green receiving a repaint.

Re: Visiting Buses at Worcester

The Eclipse that has recently arrived from First PMT is 66963 (KX05MHZ). Certainly no stranger to Worcester as she was transferred from Northampton Transport in April 2006 before passing to Leicester Citybus in August 2007. http://www.midlandred.net/photograph.php?operator=mrw&type=b7&fleet=...

Re: Large Rail Contract Oct 2016 - Buses on Loan

As I am to become one of these thirteen drivers, I'm intrigued as for whether we have any sort of confirmation yet as for what these loaned vehicles are going to be? I suppose if they end up being of a type that isn't to my liking I could always be that soldier and volunteer to drive 33039... :shock:

Re: Possible Non-Runners (?)

we should be turning right in Leigh Sinton road... How crafty and utterly ridiculous. I was struggling to read beyond this point as my face was flat in my palm. All published timetables that I am aware of which detail this offending schooldays-only journey of Service 365 have it terminate at Link T...

Re: FMR: Refurbs and Repaints

E'hem. I meant 67647.
I'm surprised the school bus made it as far as it did to fetch the repainted Enviro. :lol:

Re: FMR: Refurbs and Repaints

Saw this pass through St. John's in tandem with 68559 this afternoon.
So proud of it. :D

Re: Visiting Buses at Worcester

Indeed. Finishing this evening, I parked in front of Wright Eclipse Gemini 32632 (KP54KBJ) from the First Potteries fleet. I'm convinced that wasn't on the patch this morning. :? Edit:- After flicking through my photographs just now, I realised I'd actually captured this at Adderley Green whilst on ...

Re: FMR: Refurbs and Repaints

The aforementioned preparation of 67663, as recorded at the beginning and end of my duty yesterday. The vinyls had been removed and both sides sanded down. Also included a view of 33042 looking rather sorry for itself in the company of 32633 from the Potteries. IMG_8645.jpg IMG_8655.jpg IMG_8647.jpg
