And Although I have not been through all of it I was wondering about B7RLE Breakdowns
I stating in a post some time ago which I can't remember now that I thought the B7RLE were reliable, and I also said I thought they would continue so and be a reckoning force in the fleet for some time to come can you prove me wrong? I have yet to be or witness a B7RLE breakdown personally so is this just luck or what?

Yes same. Apart from maybe one or two minor defects i have never seen a Wright Eclipse Urban 2 broken down. I've seen plentey of Walsall ones broken down though ;)

WN's ones have faired extremely well in the warm weather we've been having. They are extremely well built and reliable.

Yes i haven't noticed a single B7RLE at WN breakdown during the hot weather. They've been replacing overheated Spectras on the 59 recently. The other day 2007 replaced broken down 4004

I've been on a PE one that cut out in brierley hill on the 246 before, the driver got it started straight away though.
