Such a shame with these old buses coming to an end, such brilliant buses!

[Ingleboro261F]

I agree

The engine out of 4467 is going in 4618 hopefully

At the moment it is waiting a visit from DVSA like most major collisions have to. Will be costed by the insurance company after that.

A few West Bromwich buses is out of service for a while after being in a crash accident

4768 involved in very heavy rear end rtc in Smethwick's sponcroft area , it's done its last journey.
4740 4768 possible to make one good bus but I doubt it with all the EV's just itching to start service

WB don't have the Chargers yet unless you get a PB Transfer or two I can see 1 being fixed. 

[Sh4318]

These (4740, 4768), if withdrawn, will be the first two Euro IV Enviros to go, sad really

Depending on the priorities for the "other" PBs, I would imagine 69xx's could start to work their way over to WB. Could be completely wrong as usual.

It was 4766 that was involved in yesterday's RTC. Shame really, that one was one of the rockets of the batch

I think WB's priority should be replacing the Scanias with double decks. The 12s and 13s can really struggle at peak with singles

Why would they want to get rid of perfectly good Euro6 vehicles while there are non-Euro6 ones that must be got rid of?

Exactly, the main priority is non Euro 6.

Again it's not been confirmed what's happening to them but people are already jumping to conclusions.
