4363 actually still looks pretty good in the wrap livery. Just needs the interior sorting out. I'll keep an eye for 4383 as well over the next few days and let you know P419EJW.

Really not having any luck with YW this week, spent 9:20-10:20 in Kings Heath this morning hoping to see it -_-  Also managed to just miss 4105 as I left this morning it went flying past on 11C *sigh*

What luck! First time I caught the 27 today from Kings Heath to Maypole; and what turns up....1419! Excellent bus and can see why P419EJW likes her; engine still very smooth and the ride smooth. They've painted/replaced the wheel trims so it looks very smart. I reckon it's permanent, or at least I hope it is.

1419 is a nice bus at Walsall why can't 1421 or 1474 go I won't be sad to
See either of them go .

I would've liked 1440 to come back; first bus I rode on the S2 and its first day at AG back in 2009.

The majority of Walsall B10L except

1453 1454 1459 1474 1475 1477 1479

Have been based at Yardley Wood some point in life.

Thanks for that info; btw I saw that YW used to have Crusaders as well back in 2002 to around 2007. They seemed to run the 49C and also a route called the 12? I assume that more of the routes were single deck back then.

Yardley Wood had Acocks Green's old B10Bs as well for a time (some of them anyway)

The 12 went Birmingham to Shirley Station, replaced by the 3/3A in the first Soliull Review

YW had 1358-70, I think the rest went to Dudley but I may be wrong on that bit.

According to Tony's history, YW had 1358-1372, but I suspect 1371/1372 went straight to Pensnett From AG along with 1373-1377. Eventually the entire batch of ex AG's B10B's moved to Pensnett

Thanks for comfirmation. I obviously meant Pensnett not Dudley, wrong era!
