The 2 B6LEs, all of the OmniLinks which are going elsewhere in NXWM, and a few older 0405Ns in Travel Coventry livery.

I'm sure that what's been said earlier in the thread or another topic

The first of Coventry's Enviro 400s have now been sighted part built at ADL's Scarborough plant

Only got the number of the last one which was 2172.

Has anyone seen any of the new B7RLEs in service yet? Or are they being stored for a grand launch day?

662 was working on the 13/A. 586 was working on the 3/3A at today. 1542 is being to withdrawn. I guess next 1596 or 1602 will be withdrawn. 1597 is really loud when engine turn on always noise " Clamp" every 2-3min during engine working.
I'm dislike double decker! I love a bendy buses!

Don't ask to me about Double Decker and only talk me for Single Decker and Bendy buses.

6004 T604 MOA .... 6005 T605 MOA ... 6008 T608 MOA .... 6013 BJ03 ESN ....

its not clamp its a clunk like you used to get on Metrobuses, hellfire, most Mercs are generally loud anyway, part of their charm amongst enthusiasts.

No, 1597 engine is not working well because due to noisy similar sound voice "clamp"
Most CV Mercs are normal sound expect only 1597 is really good condition. 1597 has recently fitted the new advert for weekly prices.

No new buses on the road yet resulting in vehicle shortage, 586 on 18/A this morning peak and 662 on 3/A. 2153 on 20/A/E.
