NXWM Livery Vinyl Wrap Buses

[John]

Was this the full list of the buses treated in this way?

Perry Barr - 4259, 4263 (4234 would have if it was not decapitated)

Yardley Wood - 4341, 4351, 4383

Birmingham Central - 4197, 4433



Do I take it as only 4259, 4263, 4351 and 4383 are still in this condition?

Yes 4259/4263/4351/4383 are still like this :)

Thanks Rob  ;D

These must be a high priority for going through refurbs. Central quickly done their 2. 4341 was also refurbished quite quick. Those remaining are not in the best of nick, 4351 and 4259 especially

Has 4259 got worse then? seen it out but not had chance to see the other side where it was peeling off

It couldn't get much worse. When you see the nearside Nathan, then you'll see how bad it is  :)

4351 was on the 246 today, looked terrible. Surely a visit to the paint shop must be very near.

Isn't YW 4363 also like this?

4149 could have possibly had a short lived wrap, it had I-phone ad, but was repainted by Mid March so may have gone straight to paint.
4442 was wrapped, but short lived as such and was repainted by April.
I think 4363 might still be wrapped http://wmbusphotos.com/NXWM/4225-4474/4363.html I haven't noticed it in for repaint yet. Here is a photo of 4371 http://wmbusphotos.com/NXWM/4225-4474/4371.html. I must try and get a photo of this one now repainted, saw it yesterday while I was checking tickets on the Stratford Road and forgot I needed it!

With the reduced number of vinyl wrapped buses at YW now, I must say the majority of buses being used on the 2 and 3 do look very smart now.
