There's no euro 6 on the 841 or 432

Gov clean air zone check shows them as no charge which must mean they're Euro 6.

Says who? All that says is they are exempt from any charges in Clean Air Zones, like many other non Euro 6 vehicles are.
Doesn't listen to people with more than ten toes.

Birmingham requires Euro 6.

What possible exemption is there for a non-heritage bus?

It's better than no bus at all and no lost mileage. 

But no you all still find a way to moan!

That is a 100% valid comment but at the end of the day they bid for Euro 6 work so should have the buses to cover them if not they should be penalised else what is the point of specifying Euro 6 and at the end of the day they are trying to clean up the air we all breathe.

NX Bus and Diamond applied for and were granted exemptions to use non-Euro6 vehicles by TfWM.

I don't know for certain but it would seem likely that Chaserider did also.

At the end of the day, I'm pretty sure that while TfWM would prefer all buses to be Euro6, they would also prefer all registered journeys to be operated.
