I saw it a few times while waiting for my duty on the 60s, getting new recruits ready for the hell that is the city centre

It's a shame they were scrapped, cabs were a bit on the tight side for those of us over 6 foot tall but I enjoyed driving 4287 during my training was such a smooth drive once I got the hang of the brakes haha

Seen Optare Solo 327 just going through Perry Barr towards the garage. Has this only just returned to the road? As I've not seen it around for ages!
