Any indication as to when the cascaded Walsall B7RLE's will be moving to Dundee, also, there was a rumour of some '54 plate Geminis coming up here, anything on those @Tony?

Should be 4680-4686 considering they're leaving the Midlands

I love the suspense of disbelief on sites like this....

HOW, in the scheme of things can anyone NEED to travel on a particular bus because of the arbitrary fleet number stickered on it.

Not having a go, as I have fallen into similar traps, but I still can't fathom WHY.
Don't you start.

So, you're surprised that on a bus enthusiast's forum there might be a bus enthusiast? Simple really, whilst it isn't a life or death thing, I quite like to travel on different vehicles. And strangely enough, you'd think a forum that carries information about the fleet might be the best place to ask....... Obviously you don't see the point in certain aspects of the hobby, but that's clearly just you being narrow-minded. I can't see the point in many things ; collecting timetables, ranting about football, fishing, planes, trucks and so forth, but as I haven't got my head up my backside I just accept that people like different things and get on with it. Try it sometime! Anyhow, part of the hobby involves "targetting" vehicles with a limited life in the West Midlands, so previously there was a lot of interest in Metrobuses, now the Spectras are providing many questions, and I'd be interested to hear when the various vehicles are likely to come off the road so I can indudge in a spot of "doomsday bashing"........

So, if anyone has got a sensible answer, I'd be interested...... as would many others I suspect. Some "death dates" for the B7 Presidents would also be helpful. That way when I do fancy a trip out, I'd know where to go and what to do.

I can also never see how in the scheme of things some keyboard warriors like to snipe at others whilst hiding behind a user name, and thinking their opinion is the only relevant one.............

Does that help?

The second OmniLink I saw on the 51 was an 188* or 189* one, so there might have even been three if 1918 was also on there!
