And to confirm comments on another thread,  yes 4063 is now a Walsall bus.  I  have my own bus this week,  6148, which is also currently running out of Walsall,  it will be returned to Yardley Wood Saturday afternoon when I have finished with it. Lack of updates on the main site is due to me doing 15 hour days with it. Yes, it is legal as I have an 11 hour break which means I have taken over 1000 photographs this week so expect some mass updates soon

11 hour break? Now that's a split and a half! 4 hour driving?

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.

It hadn't I was there until  1930, I  took a bus load of security guards down,  so had to arrive first and leave last

Did you move or where you parked in the same place all day?  My mistake but you should have been fairly easy to spot as there weren't many deckers in the coach park.

No never moved all day, yes I was the only decker every day except Friday when the Black Country Tours Atlantean turned up.

Yes @Liverpool Street , less than 4 hours driving each day, 30 minutes Walsall garage to Edgbaston, the 75 minutes to Cheltenham, and similar return

I drove 2115 a couple times. Think it was my first Eclipse 2 I drove. Very good for visibility they were. Over the shoulder checks on the nearside when lane merging. I liked them. Especially when you could baffle them into revving high.
