That Sqaures ad just made 4565 look hideous. They took it off for about a week in Jan 2011, it was WNs externally cleanest bus at the time lol

All the same I find the Ad buses quite amazing as you can still see through the windows fine in fact sometimes you don't even realise its an ad bus till you get off it or the fleet number registers!! :o

Thank you 4006 for taking that photo. 4600 is my favorite bus hence my name on the forum.

Will it enter service tommorow and any idea what route it will enter service on its first day out back in service?
Any info I have I will let you know. no doubt you probably see it in service before me!!!!!

Tony,

I'm assuming 4214 is a typo? as its already been done,

I would have thought 1643 would have been a higher priority looking a your recent photo of it, or even one day 1645 may get treated to its first ever repaint

Should be 4413, also 4318, 4805

4413 is very poor condition. Is 4413 going to repaint?

Ashley

Got a piccy of 4801 on the 141 today fresh from the paintshop

yep 4413 is at WB being refurbished.

an empty bus is a happy driver.

I know that some of the PE 48xx Enviros look a bit tatty, but why are buses delivered new in 2009 in the new corporate livery being repainted while there are still hundreds of buses in the old livery that haven't seen a coat of paint in years ?

4609 is now back out. i caught it late this afternoon looking great on the 59 but without return advertising. I wonder if this will still stay on the 59 like the other return tridents do.

Passed its MOT this morning too!!

4801 was almost pink and looked incredibly tatty for a fairly new bus working on a high profile route. Presumably some problem with the original paint spec or maybe particularly strong bus washing solution at Pensnett?
