I'm sure O405Ns are ok on the 83/89 because the frequency of each is half hourly. If they were more frequent than half hourly, then yes they would need replacing


83/89 are co-ordinated every 15 minutes between Birmingham and Cape Hill. Similar to the 31/31A, which both run every 30 minutes between Birmingham and Shirley but have different terminals

4117 was a beast, gonna miss that one. Im guessing 4116 and 4119 will also be going up? And when will the next transfers of any type be happening?

The 83 and 89 are two separate services though, each with a frequency of 30 mins (two buses per hour), though they are timed to provide a 15 min frequency. The 31A is a variant of the 31, so they are essentially the same service, so they fall foul of the emission ruling.
My locals:
2 - Birmingham to Maypole | 3 - Birmingham to Yardley Wood
11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath

Why didn't they use Presidents on the 127/128/129 then, which has the same principles as the 83/89?

:( I only filmed 4118 a few weeks ago aswell! 4117 had been sounding rather rough before it left so I can't say I'll miss it too much, I just hope no more go!
