Seems 957 also now has Super X display
Are all BC route buses that support it getting it I wonder

Do you know which Enviro has this? As I might go and try and photograph or get a clip of it in the next few days :) I'll keep an eye on the 60 aswell as I know 1 Enviro is usually on the 60 almost everyday :)
was on a 21xx bus

Possibly 2150 then - that one has a Super X display at the moment.

I saw it on the 97p last week. The side display was scrolling, but the front wasn't

4900 has been sporting a full length scrape down the nearside for a while now. It also has replacement rear corner panel in a different shade of white.

I'd say half of the E400's have had a rear corner panel replaced 4906/4911/4913 are 3 of them :)

2148 towed into Perry Barr this morning

Ben

Tonight at approx 18:15 I saw a 900 Branded Enviro being towed along the Coventry Ring Road (The section that passes by the fire station) presumeably heading towards the Holyhead Road.

I couldn't see a fleet number though. I'm sure additional info will be found in due course.

Oh an additional query: The railway bridge on the Holyhead Road: The towtruck elevated the Enviro at one end...I wonder what the headroom would have been like.
