They're both as bad as eachother!

4692 is an appalling Gemini! Cooling fan lately seems to be stuck on (since mid august) and the fleet number on one side is black and looks out of place! Also, the TV screen is missing from downstairs, even though none of them work on any of the geminis anyway!
Favourite buses currently:
871, 1828, 4421, 4764, 6101, 6108, 6116, 6118, 6121, 6848, 6849

Had the pleasure of running dead from Coventry in it last night! Made even better with the constant beeping!

Still beeping this morning when moving stopped when stationary when the doors were open. The only thing that didn't was the ticket machine when I put my Swiftcard on it!

Parked at church road this evening, hopefully being sorted!

It only bleeps when moving as it thinks the doors are still open

Perry Barr's 4278 I am adding to the Hall Of Shame for very loud brakes! This one used to be a good one, however the brakes on it are too loud and my ears hurt after I got off!

4416 is joining this list for its mysterious squeaking noise when steering the vehicle. I weren't entirely sure on what was happening at first. Hopefully it is fixed some time in the near future as otherwise it isn't that bad a bus.

PB's 4237 as it has the worst paintwork in the NX fleet (wonky logos, missing connection bars and offstandard fleetnumbers). Not to forget how awful it is inside, mixed seat cushions all over the place.

Of late there have been lot of rail replacement buses knocking about at new st,Galton bridge, it seems like loads of bus companies are involved, TGB,centr,nx stuff looks good , then I noticed an ex first bus plaxton trident looks like it's never seen a refurb well tired even the engine door cover is held using shed door hinges I Kidd you not and there's a burgundy,cream Alexander ALX 400 trident what a mess, I got up close to see the legal writing coastal liner,then I thought yeap these opperate crap.

To the enthusiasts New st station on the evenings good place to see oddball buses.

5514's brakes are really loud! Think it's the brakes rubbing together or something but sure is highly annoying after a while!

4253 - for being the tattiest bus in the whole fleet in NX livery. You can't see it that well in this picture but virtually every upstairs window is covered in etchings, the paintwork has been scraped off all over the place and is fading, the seat covers are still the TWM ones and they're worn and dirty, and it still has the connection bars.

Now it's one of the nicest interiors that any B7TL ALX in the fleet has! 😂

West Brom's Platinums with there stupidly LOUD cooling fans utter nitemare to drive, 6972 6976 6982 are a few of them, engineers answer to solving there great many problems is to run the coolant fans permanently, nice fix chaps. i wonder what the reading on a decibel  meter would be, i bet well over acceptable levels.
