I have had

5514 on WN27A
4541 on WN 28 (Towards the beginning of the year when tridents were rare on the 28)
A B6 on WN 59 (Again earlier this year and it was the first B6 to appear on there)
Caught 5413 one Sunday earlier in the year on the 59 and was the first time an E400H had operated the 59
4869 on WA69
5510 on a Sunday 32/3/79

There are many more that I could list

824 - 9
1540 - 141
4819 - 244 (earlier this year, when it was unheard of and the first one I'd ever seen)
4349 - 244 (tonight)
4813 - 205
1649 - 140 & 241

Also, WN Hybrids on various routes including the 27, 33, 79, 126, 255 and 529.

I also caught an MPD on the 002 earlier on in the year, I think it was before 30808 went out of action too.

TGB's Lance 452 on the HC2 topped it off though.

I assumed this was NXWM only lol, if it isn't then yes that is probably number 1 :)

Just remembered, I've also had 4631 on the 35 this year, I'd say that was at the top of the list too!

I'd misread the title of this thread and was about to post about the most unusual thing I caught from a ride in 2013. Best not go there.
