Well its no surprise unusual workings happen because of the way the buses park! And imagine the chaos if the President at the front FTS

Are YW short of deckers again?

I noticed an Omnilink on the 18 and the 49 again today. (I was preoccupied with the task of driving to remember the fleet number)

Which of YW's are OTR?

One thing Daimler Mercedes Benz are good at is producing excellent Diesel engines, I do miss the sound of the 0405n for all its faults you couldn't knock that 12 litre engine.

YW certainly still seem to be a few deckers down. Caught the 35 for the first time yesterday from Kings Heath to B'ham, hoping for a ex PB enviro..... a Scania, 1910, turns up. First time i've seen a single on the 35 and the driver kept clipping curves with it so clearly not used to a scania on the route. Love the Scanias so actually made the trip even better!

Graham Nash. He has worked for 50 years 'on the buses'

Stuharris 6360

Toothpaste livery looks out of place in Bartley green, 4724 on the 18 today.
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

An odd sighting for me today was 1925 out of service on Vincent Drive heading in the direction of Birmingham. Might have gone out of service at the QE?
