Omnilink on the 67

Its 1836. How unusual is this?

Thinking about it, perhaps not all that unusual to see one, but it did look strange
Now in exile in Oxfordshire....

4264 on 48

That's BU51 RVZ! My favourite B7 because of its numberplate...

Not rare but not common a gemini on the WB48 this afternoon

4022 was on the 15:00 82 from wolverhampton to dudley it was really dodgy and my mates seat collapsed from beneath im

1836 isnt a PB bus though it belongs to BY so it can be unusual i guess
Nice spot with 4768 even though a nice bus is wasted on the 29

Matt i though you didnt like B7TLs or is it just presidents youd send to dundee?

Thanks Ashley :)

I think matt was just referring to certain presidents and not all B7TL's

1836 is a PB bus, 1788-1835 are at BY

They can send all the Presidents to Svalbard let alone Dundee for all I care.

Geminis can be decent but sound pretty much the same as Presidents, but faster in most cases

Whereas the ALX400 B7TLs sound completely different, might not be as fast but in this case their sound and character wins it

Well that would have been ultra rare if correct as 502 is a bus based at NXWM Pensnett garage and the 27 route that goes from Dudley to Wolverhampton is operated from Wolverhampton garage

Sorry my mistake (referring to 1836)

Like trident4370 said, have a trip on 4089 and some of the AG ones youll change your mind :D

I've done too many AG ones, when waiting for the Outer Circle I always pray that a Gemini turns up

If the YW ones are any better then fair enough but I can't see why they would be any different

I saw 502 leaving Halesowen out of service last night so presumably had come off the 243/4 or possibly the 297
