Apologies if this has already been mentioned but which tridents have been re-engined to euro 4/5?

These 3 were done at Wolverhampton a few years ago so they may differ enginewise to the recent 46**'s
4166
4179
4186

Other 41** are
4148
4172
4176
4177
4178
4185

Then those that I know off are
4586
4619
4633
4634

Just look for any Trident with the extra filler cap behind the front wheel, those ones have had replacement engines

I was on 4186 on Monday when she was on the 70 on the Solihull trip and I thought the engine sounded different to other Tridents and wondered if it had been given a euro 4/5 engine at some point.

Also another sign of a euro 4/5 re-engined bus is a blue light on the dashboard on the right hand side by the gears I guess for the Adblue warning light or something like that

Have they renamed 4895 Alice or is it still named Annie? Because looking at the pic of 4895 with PR Branding looks like the name Alice has been applied by accident.

It has been changed back to Annie, saw it today NIS.

4903 has been branded for the past week...
For anyone who cares, so far I have 4895/6/7/8, 4901/2/3/4 all as branded. (I assume 4899/00 are done and I just haven't seen them). Also I don't know if anyones noticed but they all have different colours on the back windows.

Saw 4899 earlier in the week in Cotteridge and it has been branded.  Haven't seen 4900 with branding as of yet but as you say probably has been done by now.

Have they taken the megarears off the branded ones now? 4896 had one when I saw it branded

trident4370

Nope, they still have them unfortunately.
