It replaced 4587 which was taken out of service this morning.

For the record 4723/27/30 working all day on the 115/914 roster - managed to ride 4727/30

Also 1863 on the 914 around midday, which again I luckily caught - much chuntering from three old ladies getting onboard at Lidl, Pype Hayes ....

Quite, Madam!  ;D

2133 on the 97A

B7RLE's aren't really that unusual on the 97/A/P

I'd say its worth a mention though. Regardless of status of Unusualness.

One thing Daimler Mercedes Benz are good at is producing excellent Diesel engines, I do miss the sound of the 0405n for all its faults you couldn't knock that 12 litre engine.

5515 was on WN11 this morning, that broke down and has been replaced by 5510

Trident 4609

Saw 5510 on the 11 this afternoon (As reported by Ashley)departing Wolverhampton Bus Station about 15:25. (As Ashley mentioned it was the replacement for 1 branded 5515)

Very rare to get any hybrids on the 11 at anytime let alone a branded example then for another B5 (Unbranded 5510) to replace it is even more rare

That's something I've noticed before, sometimes when a bus on an unusual route breaks down, it is replaced by another unusual working (usually the same type), I wonder why. These include

5515 > 5510 on 11
4445 > 4621 on 900
Spectra > Merc on 256

and many other occasions
