Trident 4609

1743 passed me on Penn Rd this morning (going towards Wolverhampton) before turning up Goldthorn Hill. It had 1998 rolled up on the rear blinds. Any ideas where it was heading?

Shame that - ex-demonstrator - would've been nice had she been saved. 

Ho hum...

That was, I think, the last 'UVG' bodied Mercedes O405N in the fleet.

Well if someone makes Willenhall Commercials an offer......
They sold a couple of Metrobuses on for preservation and the fact this was driven to their yard shows it is a runner

Sadly I don't have the space or time to dedicate. 

However, I am in the market for a registration plate swap - this time onto a V-reg Rover Vitesse that I'm about to MOT. 
I would love to make that work this time - preferably off a late fleet number Benz....

Just passed a O405N on tow on the Expressway heading towards the M6. Still in its original livery

Looks  like it has been withdrawn now parked facing admin block with no ticket machine, red sticker on windscreen , wheels chocked. Body work does look well tired.

A lot of Mercedes have been sold in the last couple of months (32) - anyone have any idea how many withdrawn ones are left?
