It finally made it then! Have 4100 and 4517 transferred yet?

1534 seen being driven down the Newton Road late last night and 1586 being seen driven again down the Newton Road this afternoon both with not in service and both being driven by engineers, may be on their way to Miller Street and guess they could be being withdrawn following the transferred mercs to WB from BY.

1534 was a replacement bus for 1574 on the 451 saturday night due to some fucking twats smashing a couple of windows just after new oscott going to kingstanding.

as for 1586 i doubt it will be withdrawn yet due to refurbishment and other non nxwm mercs at west brom and probably was replacing a 406 or 451
an empty bus is a happy driver.

Explains it then, just thought it was odd to see a merc with an engineer on down the newton road at that time especially as 1534 is one of the older unrefurbed mercs at WB. Smashed windows on buses at the New Oscott doesnt surpise me at all though.
