Refurbs

[John]

BCs Vodafone mega-ad trio were definatly in need of a spruce up

I certiantly agree with that Ashley. One of Coventry's is in as well. Only 4300, 4301, and one (I think) is still at Yardley Wood. Did someone say the Wolverhampton ones are in for refurb also?

When a private hire with NXWM takes place, what happens regarding tachographs?

4776 has a digital tachograph fitted, so I just put my driver's card into that, and then download it via the usual software

There are a few digital tachographs around the company, as well as 4776, Walsall have 1787, Yardley Wood have 2, I think it is 4738 & 4739, One of Perry Barr's leather seated Scanias has one and all the driver trainer ex Gas buses & two coaches have them.

At Walsall 244, 4127 & 4128 still have old style tachographs, Perry Barr 4515 & 4516 are also fitted which is why PB kept those two in the middle of the batch. 3225 has a manual tacho, I suspect most garages actually have one or two fitted
