:shock:

That one is baron for E400's only. Of the strictest order! That was a rare spot indeed.

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.

You do sometimes get a few spotters on Moor St. around that time so fingers crossed ;)

I'd love the idea that someone in the garage occasionally thinks to themselves "f*** it, let's have some fun and mess with the spotter's minds for a bit"

Is The 24 now hybrid ran Saturday an Sunday  or is it a one off as The 24 has had nearly all journeys ran using hybrids with 4902/04 on there whilst The 22/3 has had tridents with very few hybrids ?

How can the 24 be nearly all Hybrid if 4902/4 are on there? I was in Birmingham Central earlier today and they had booked the correct vehicles out on all routes. The 24 is supposed to get spare unbranded Enviros and spare Hybrids. Any non-hybrids on the 22/23 are down to vehicle changes

Nice pic of 1560:-)...looks so smart. Wonder if the low fleet number location was typical back in the late 90s or was this a one off?

Seems rather low to me.
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).
