The picture Tony got of 4218 on Sunday has to be my favourite
http://www.wmbusphotos.com/NXWM/4001-4224/4218.html

A Sunday and Evenings only route, plus at the termious, and of my favourite bus  :)
Bit of a nail though. Nice engine & paint work. Rubbish gearbox & rattly bodywork

I like the third picture of 520, because of how the bus is turning right and I think the 222 branding suited the B6s.

520

I like the second picture of 565 going up the hill. I found it interesting to see 565 was on the right side of the road then turning back on the left side, it sort of questioned me if the driver was drunk or something lol. I could actually imagine 565 go up that hill by 5mph.

565

I like the first picture of 604, it looked smart with the "recently" new refurbishment of the NXWM livery.

604

I like the first picture of 246 going up a small hill while indicating. It reminds me the good old days when I used to travel on B6s and B10s in Dudley. I might be weird but I like pictures of B6s/B10s indicating.

1414

I like the first and second pictures, B10s like 1420 did look very smart in that kind of TWM livery. 27 looked perfect.

1420

I know these pictures are just B6s and B10s, I only have a soft spot for them. I don't like any other types of buses in the NXWM fleet. I'm a Wright Crusader guy!

Isn't that the one with a really useless retarder? From what I recall it was a terrible bus, as was 4183.

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.

Some of my favourite pictures are of the Presidents at Perry Barr
3 of the best pics on the main site are 4108, 4115, and 4118 (Bottom pics)
http://www.wmbusphotos.com/NXWM/4001-4224/4108.html The best one I think
http://www.wmbusphotos.com/NXWM/4001-4224/4115.html
http://www.wmbusphotos.com/NXWM/4001-4224/4118.html

Also the old Spectra pictures (at Central in TWM livery and with 50 branding)
The bottom picture of 4010 and 4015 (loved riding them on the 9/139)

I'm sure also Tony had a pic of one on the 900 in Coventry (someone certainly did!)

Not from the main site, but these are a few of my favourites
