4085 at WB on the 83

I thought Presidents didn't comply with the new emission rules

They are classed as 2 separate routes running every 30 minutes. They create a combined frequency, but they are 2 completely different routes, it's different with the 127-9 or 140/1 because they have more in common.
Class 153, 155 and 156. The Super Sprinters
Local Routes: 21, 89, 48/A, 12/A, 54/A
Semi-local routes: 80, 87

The 140/1 obviously don't interwork though (with the exception of one peak 141 in the morning going onto the 140/241 later), so I think Mercs would be allowed on the 140 or 141

President 4056 is currently on the pits at WB so presumably moved over the weekend :) (don't think it has been in service yet)

There should soon be 3 further withdrawn Mercs from WB following receipt of 4056, 4057 & 4085

Might be a co-incidence, but 1523 was parked at the depot today not doing much. Couldn't see if the ticket machine had been removed.

Possible being WB's oldest Merc

Ashley 4569

If they withdrew WBs oldest Mercs then 1523 1561 and 1577 would be a good guess given their lack of refurb.

Heard a rumour that WN is to lose its Volvo B5 green thingys to BC doing a swap with BCs E400H's

This was a rumour a while ago, before the Hybrids arrived at WN, it was rumoured that they wanted BC & WN to just have one type of Hybrid at there garage, however it never happened.
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

Thats an ancient rumour unless you know something all of us don't?

Would be expensive to do now with a number of WNs B5s having branding.

Isn't 1556 un-refurbished as well?
