Unusual Workings June 2013

1658 is a good merc, i couldnt see which one it was otherwise id have got it but BLEEP's Trident scream was good enough

Yes BLEEP was overrevving. However in my experience 1658 is a bad Merc, rather slow and very rough sounding. 1665 is one of the worst. I guess I'm just more used to the earlier better Mercs

1658 spent most of its life on the 404 and was one of the workhorses on the service so probably clocked up a fair few miles after working long days on both the 404/A. It shows as only 1525/1534/1658 remain of the 15 buses that had the on board announcements installed onto them and their for were used just on the 404.

The majority of Mercs are overrevving now. But I agree, 1658 is one of my favourites. 1706 is the best

[Stuharris 6360]

554 on daytime 276 board.

1620 broken down on X96 at Wollaston traffic island at 11am.

All mercs are good, some rougher than others, some are bland, some appear all the time but their all good, i was abit more bothered about 1658 though as until last week i hadnt been on it since november 2011
