4304 now at Walsall
4304 didn't transfer to WA until July 2015. It was at PB in March 2015. So you never went on it on the 40 in March 2015.
1953-42 last bus of this year
Last bus for 2016 is former Reading Transport MAN/Optare Vecta M957VWY during the TadRed (Mortons Travel) Running Day around Reading today.
My first for 2017 will probably be a London bus of some sort
2 lasts for me. Bus was 4279, but I also had the last journeys of the year on the 77
4138 is my last vehicle caught in 2016.
My last journey was on 4125 in 2016.
First bus of 2016 was 6742 on WA935.
Last bus of 2016 was 6721 on WA937A.
Finished 2016 off with 2026.
Started 2017 with 2016.

Finished 2016 with one of the good heaps sorry Eclipse 2's, 2026. Started it with a heap too most likely, more of the same next year
Why do you say that? Is there something specific about 2026 or are you not a fan of the Eclipse 2's in general? Best full size single decker to drive in the fleet in my opinion. (I've driven the Eclipse 2's, Omnilinks, E200MMC and also B10B/L/Ultra and O405N.)

For some reason the Eclipse 2s are 'underrated' by people on here - possible because some view them as dull with their ZF Ecolife... Personally I think they're excellent - good passenger environment and the Volvo chassis is typical Volvo quality. As you've mentioned before they're good to drive as well.

Did you not get on a bus till August 2015? As 4105 didn't transfer to Walsall until then
Well my first bus of 2017 is 6756 on WA937A.
My first bus of 2017 was 2217 on the 72 to the Clock Garage
My last was I think 7027 on the PB28 from the Fox to the Hunters Moon
Last bus of 2015 was 4638 on the 31.
Last bus of 2016 was 4301 or 4304 on the 37, it was on the 16th of December.
Last bus of 2016 was 4599
First of 2017 was 6719
First bus of 2017 for me was 5416.
My last buses were whichever Plattie operated the second from Cannock X51(but it did have a woman driver for a change!) then whichever bus operated the 13 around five after seven am on Friday.
Didn't get any buses back home as my manager gave me a lift back to Asda Bloxwich, which is five mins walk from home!
So my first 2017 buses will be either if I decide to go out tomorrow, or the second Cannock X51 on Tuesday!
