Just wondered if anyone can shed any light as to who bought this bus from Rotala, as its now sat in a yard in Tame Bridge looking very out of place! Have tried looking through past posts but can't find the relevant Fleetchanges section.

Some one on the blue diamond facebook page is trying to find out whats happened/happening to it. It seen been there for about 2 months now and has had its seats striped out saw people working inside it the other day. All i can think off is that its been converted into a beer bus or play bus or for an exhibition or something like that.

Ah that'll probably be it then if its seatless, still if it saves it from being scrapped I guess its a good thing!

Wondered where it had gone. During the latter part of last year it was always seemed to be parked on a car park at the bottom of Hurst Street.

Hehe you cant exactly miss it if you fancy visiting one last time. It amazes me the places buses end up sometimes, Zara seem to have G118 FJW living at the old Selly Oak Hospital, and Castle Cars' Dart keeps popping up at one of the 11 bus stops in Selly Oak too, strange old life of a bus :)

I went past the same spot I originally spotted this bus before yesterday, in Tame Bridge and all I could see was a Burnt Out bus shell so somethings telling me F133 PHM is no more (unless its since been removed, something else dumped there and torched)... Will try for a pic at some point but I'm expecting it to be gone before I get back there.
