The Real 4777

With the greatest respect, I was stood in Miller Street not an hour prior to compiling that post. I suggest that folk refrain from implying others are making up misinformation.

All 7 branded buses are gone, with 4818, 4819 and 4820 leaving the fleet.

4822 and 4823 now withdrawn, but 4823 was put in USB power instead of being withdrawn!!!

We are just down to 2, 4815 and 4827, because 4800/3/4 have been withdrawn

So it was plugged in and charged? 😭

It's not an Electric.

Quote from: Steve3229vp on June 18, 2024, 05:43:06 AMMe too, 3760, 4058, 6636 and 6953 from Coventry Road
4318 was the one for me. Fortunately 4967 is a more than capable replacement, best E40D I've been on

4768 is back out saw it on the 80, almost had to double take, any news on 4740?

[EDIT]: it may have been 4769, my bad, is there any update on 4740 and 4758?

4740 is unlikely to run again.

Nothing outstanding about 4758

Just seen 4815 & 4827 parked at Miller Street with the other withdrawn 48**'s.

Yeah, all the BX09s have left the fleet now after 15 years.

Remember seeing the lot shortly after they entered service, sat outside a pub in Broad Street over a couple of pints/ afternoons.

It's pleasing to note that although my dream (which I posted about on here) of the whole batch transferring to WB was at least partially true, in that two of them went there for a week or so!! Is the next step for 4718 etc to go there (or maybe get withdrawn) when YW gets its electrics?!!

I'd imagine withdrawing Euro six double deckers is not a priority at the moment.
