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.

If Nathan saw it on Colmore Row/Snow Hill Queensway, then it might have been 824

It could have been 824 then on either the 120, 140, or maybe even a 141

Could have still been 824 on the 120/140 or 141?

I forgot PE ran down Broad Street, so could have been.

Could have been one of WBs on the 127/128/129.
(could have been one of PEs on the 9 also!)
Or could have been one of BCs on the 22, 23, 24 or 29?
