24th February is looking a likely date, although it could be earlier for extra chargers being available

Thanks Tony. Most grateful. Gives me something to do on that Friday in addition to getting some of the PB examples too.
Don't judge me until you've walked in my size ten shoes.

If the question hasn't been answered what engine does 4586 have because it sounds like an E400 engine inside of it.

Ronnoc

It was retrofitted with a euro 4 cummins ISBe engine (an E400 engine) around 2009ish.

The 35 looks to be all platinum and electric today. Not sure if that's happened before.

1/9/24 was very nearly entirely platinum and electric but this would be the first time the 35's fleet was this depressing on a weekday.

4727 on the 76 today, was taken out of service with a defective Init unit - the card reader was covered by a hi-vis jacket when I boarded at Chinn Brook Road, as I got off at the Solihull College stop, I could see the screen was showing what looked like a 'blue screen of death' Windows error message.
My locals:
2 - Birmingham to Maypole | 3 - Birmingham to Yardley Wood
11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath

I've noticed that a lot of the init machines are starting to have issues, weather it be not scanning m-tickets, not accepting card payments or even freezing when getting to stops. Not sure why it's happening all of the sudden.

4586 is one of the minority of non Euro 6 buses in the NXWM fleet.

May i ask the other non Euro 6 buses in the WM fleet, thanks
