Lovely photo of 4188 on the 94, with the TWM Blue bumper attached to newly repainted NX Livery. Also, the only photo page with a video of the bus on service 957, on Lode Lane.
Check out my photos on Flickr & Instagram

 There is a rather tidy shot of Loco 57312 on the phots site taken at crewe by tony phillips...
Mind the Gap.....?:-)

Too many excellent pictures from the late Ronnie Morgan's collection to mention.

This caught my eye:

Did 2916 or any other Timesaver actually ever run in this livery? I know there were numerous variants of the Timesaver livery but I honestly never remember that one.

The one of 'Elton John' hand jiving while driving in Worcestershire. Can't find it at the moment. Maybe @Tony can help?

Brilliant! There aren't many pictures out there of 6621 to 6630 at Cotteridge garage, where they started their lives. I was 9 years old and living in Stirchley when 6611-20 and 6621-30 were delivered new to Selly Oak and Cotteridge garages respectively and remember my amazement at seeing something different to the dual door NOV---G and SOE---H Fleetlines that were the staples on Pershore and Bristol Roads at the time.

They all eventually moved on to PL and CR garages when the Metrobuses began arriving.

This picture brings back many happy childhood memories.

I agree entirely with Mikes comments.

I enjoy seeing all Rons pictures but this one was superb.

Cotteridge garage not unlike Harborne don't get much exposure so thanks Ron RIP.

Shame really when you think about it... There's only one employee left who was from Original Cotteridge garage. All that time, gone. How does life pass by so... Unnoticeably fast?

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.

The picture Tony got of 4218 on Sunday has to be my favourite

Of the thousands of photographs of Ronnie Morgan I have so far looked through (There are still loads more I haven't even looked at yet) This is definitely my favourite

There are a number of pictures taken by Tony at the old Wolverhampton Bus Station on May 28th 2009. Those have to be my favourites, when the old order of proper buses was ending as such.

Also enjoying the Ronnie Morgan collection, mostly the shots of the early days of the low floor tupes soon to be extinct

D 932 ODA. Perhaps the best coach i have ever driven and still looks so modern despite being built in 1987. A true classic.
