4292 is on the 11C,
If 4294 is the only other ALX400 at AG then it's in the garage,

This is a genuine, serious question. Not just for RS, but for all the spotters and photographers.

What is the fascination of looking at a bus that has just been transferred. They all look the same, sound the same, smell the same. 4102 on the 89 will be the same as 4102 on the 11.

As a teenage bus spotter/bus rider myself, I was more interested in the local scene (WH/LH) and the goings on around here, and although I used to go around riding the system, a bus being transferred from AG to WB was neither here nor there.

We never had the luxury of someone telling us timings either. You stood at a bus stop or bus station and waited!

It's quite cogent reasoning, I suppose the only visible difference is the display.

I think some people may just want a ride. Being a fan of Geminis, I've yet to ride one of the 47** batch and their time is limited in the WM as well. In terms of photographs, I suppose it's personal preference,

I think that's a bit out aiming it at all of us, I never go for transfers straight away unless either
A) I see it whilst out anyway and if I have no plan ill jump on
Or
B) its a new type of bus to that type of garage, such as when PN had 4962 on loan.
