Cheers @Jack and all...what would be the best routes to find 4148, 4166, 4172, 4176, 4177, 4179, 4180, 4181 and 4185 on a Sat?
4180 & 4181 are now at YW so any YW route really apart from town routes as these are only euro 3 @twb1979

They are often found on the 14.
97 would be another possibility.
4181 is euro 3 aswell.
4180/1 aren't Euro 4 and are at Yardley Wood.
The 14 and 60 are your best bets. Also the 63 has them, as it's a mix of Hybrids, E400's and Tridents. 97 is another route you might find them one, sometimes they do the Pershore Road and the X70. @twb1979

Cheers @Jack @2206 and @Squiz1971... I'll keep my eyes open for 4148/66/72/76/77/79 and 85 tomorrow, does BC have any other re-engined Tridents?

Those are the re-engined Voith ones.
BC have 4619/4633/4 which are the re-engined ZF's which are real beasts! @twb1979

All buses are engined, or they don't go at all

Just curious as to what purpose 4879 will be operating on the AG running board of the 76?

So what is the purpose of it operating on the 76? Something to do with the QE?

That depends on TfWM who want it photographed with some of their pride flags, and I don't know where they are yet

So if there's a bus painted up different from another garage in the future I can request it for my 45 and 47?
