No they do the two boards that operate the longest so they leave depot early am and return last

By Late night boards, that means that they are the buses that remain on there from the daytime to operate the evening. Therefore, they will be placed to work certain running boards to make this happen.

Thanks for clearing that up :) Wasn't entirely sure. So 2 boards during the day (Stay on till late night) are always B7RLE operated

Are meant to be so if you see anything other on those then that would now be unusual

Was just coming out of Merry hill, around 22.45 I think towards Dudley. Never really noted the time though.

2096 is my favorite b7

Mine is 2098 because it feels fast and has a nice 'growl'

Also 4801 is on 276 today but not really that unusual any more

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.
