I saw it on the Bristol Road at Edgbaston park road at about 4:20 this afternoon.....

I was using it for a special project today and got it back to BC about 10 minutes too late for its turn on the 97 (which leaves garage at 15:30) so an eclipse was used on the 97 turn, and 4177 had to go out on a short evening peak turn on the Bristol Road.

I think this photo highlights the difference in quality with the latest NXWM repaints...4177 was repainted some months now but still has a sheen and depth and looks quite fresh. It's a pity the new Enviros weren't prepared to the same spec as the Tridents and Geminis that are being repainted now, as unfortuinately I fear it won't be long before they look similar to the ones on the 9, which haven't aged well atall and are already being repainted now.

Every bus that appears from refurb looks better than the last at the moment, so nice to see the quality of this sort of work getting back to the standard of WMPTE and WMT.

I agree, these latest repaints really are smart, something that NXWM should be proud of.
