From what I'm told, the ones for Burton/Leicester are for the 9/9A, the ones at Cannock are for Pye Greens, the ones at Telford are for 481 so what are the ones at Oswestry for?

One thing Daimler Mercedes Benz are good at is producing excellent Diesel engines, I do miss the sound of the 0405n for all its faults you couldn't knock that 12 litre engine.

There are HUNDREDS of them in Merseyside!  Not all of the following are based in Merseyside, but many are- Arriva NW and Cymru have 2620-2700 and 2900-3155.
All Voith gearboxed screamers!

Oswestry have two main routes, the 70 to Shrewsbury and the 2 group to Wrexham. The 70 received four new 'long' Versas 3696-99 last year so I think the new Pulsars will be for the 2 replacing the 4 ex North West DAFs 2737/40-2 and Darts 2378-9 which have been the regulars on this route for many years.

Maybe the 04 plate cadets and the 2 55 plate darts will go shrewsbury or stafford?

Bob
