Refurbs

Not asking nastily, but do you suffer from dyslexia?  It would make responding to your posts a little bit easier if I knew you have a problem writing stuff down.

I was thinking it was more likely that English perhaps isn't their first language

Not sure if its been reported in another topic but 808 seems to have been debranded from the 99 already...

Yep, it was reported a couple of weeks ago. It now has a bigger front fleetname than the rest of the unbranded Enviro200s.

808 has now had the larger style front fleetname that was applied when it was de-branded removed and replaced by a standard sized one. Standards of presentation on newer buses definitely on the up.

4358 fresh from refurb and looking immaculate, being driven by an engineer along Harborne Rd this morning.

Pretty sure Tony has a photo of it on the main site on the 957

Ok thanks, in that case I stand corrected, it looks so shiny I thought it was fresh from the paintshop. Tony's photo is from yesterday and it has no adverts so can't have been back long.

It's on the 22/23 now so must have been on its way to replace a failed hybrid.

Are BY starting to refurb all of their Omnilinks to the NX livery and seating now or is this a one off? It will be nice to see them all gleaming and looking brand new but I would've thought there are other buses elsewhere far more in need of refurbishment than Omnilinks from 2007?

1788 is the second to have gone in during the last week, Tony reported 1800 last Sun/Mon

1788 was definately in need of a repaint, see second photo down http://wmbusphotos.com/NXWM/1750-1953/1788.html
as this is also Bordesley's oldest bus, not much worse they could send in
