1643 got taken off apparently it had a strong diesel smell on board so was decided to be taken back to the garage an 1593 went on the 297 instead.

One thing Daimler Mercedes Benz are good at is producing excellent Diesel engines, I do miss the sound of the 0405n for all its faults you couldn't knock that 12 litre engine.

Do you know what route it was on? I can't think what routes Diamond operate in Wolverhampton on Sundays.

Think there may have been a defect with 5510 as 5413 appeared on the 59 in its place earlier
