Having seen there are further orders for the Platinum's, I travelled recently on one of the new Platinum buses I am very surprised NX have continued to reorder. I thought they would be much better ordering more of the Green Hybrids.
I have two complaints about the Platinum's, one is sitting at the front upstairs the window demister is very noisy, but the most irritating thing of all is the stop starting of the diesel engine everytime it stops at a stop, it is so noise and annoying. The green Hybrids are much better. What do others think.

PS, 6800 was seen at Heysham Docks this weekend

Thank you Stu for the info. I see from their website they are not open until Easter so I may pop up in the week after.

Would any one know the numbers of the routemasters presumably preserved please. There were 3 which I saw as I went past on the train to Liverpool last Saturday

 I have just come back to spotting after many many years. I have had one or two instances in the Midlands around Walsall with drivers mouthing off or gesticulating.
I was told I could not take pictures at Dudley Bus Station although I reckon I was not on there but I did not argue.  Having been to Coventry twice, London twice, Liverpool & Manchester in the last couple of months I have had no problems at the bus stations.

Many thanks for the warning about Cannock as I had planned to go there sometime.

best wishes
