Interestingly, someone mentioned a week or so ago, that they had seen WN Tridents travelling empty from City, well today i saw two WN Tridents travelling into City (NIS) at lunchtime. Missed one fleet number, but the other was 4555.

I was on 4587 at the time, which desperately needs a paint / refurb, was rattling and shaking like a good one.

4555 was on the 256/257 this morning but was replaced by a Merc at 1230 at Wolverhampton Bus Station.

well it passed me at Bearwood going into City at 1315 (approx), and it was being driven by a driver, not a mechanic???

Quite possible Matt. To be honest, i was quite surprised at the number of 126s about, there seemed more about than 9s  :) :)

Probably find a Trident broke down on the 126 and only a Merc was spare, so rather than put the Merc on the 126, they swapped 4555 from the 256/7 to the 126 and put the Merc on the 256/7
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

If im right, the Merc they put on was 1670, it came into the bus station around that time, it came onto stand A with 751 on the front and side then went into service

Just to add, 638 has had its gearbox problems fixed, still a scrapheap that can barely move.

Also 4567 is having gearbox issues, it also recieved attention this morning for a water leak but was soon back on the road and stayed out until end of service on 11/32/33

I have also noticed the rear Dot Matrix display still hasn't been fixed on 4567

Yes it was indeed 1670, I narrowly missed catching it in Stourbridge thanks to delays caused by school traffic >:(

Saw 1672 today now with NXWM logos, and I just want to say how smart it looks, still in its first livery

Never said it hadn't. Just the first time I have seen it, and remarking that it looks smart with them  ;)

Oh Ok :) Just saying just incase you weren't aware ;) The TWM logos were fading on 1672 so i agree with you that it looks smart with NX logos

Thanks anyway Nathan. It was the one Wolves O405N I really wanted to see today as I knew it would have the NXWM logos, and my luck was in for a change  :)
