Preserved Buses

[Dylan4579]

I've just seen a lynx pass my house with the fleetnumber 1026, with quite a few passengers on. How many Buses are preserved?

1026 is on a tour of the West Midlands today. I was invited to go on it, but unfortunately work got in the way :-(

I saw that aswell but I saw it at 1:50pm with 245E. It was then changed to 74E when it left Dudley

I saw it at around 4 or 5 ish... It was displaying 101 City Centre / Centrebus at Moor Street...

[The Real 4778]

A pal o'mine captured 1026 on camera from the Bartons Arms, where it stopped yesterday afternoon, I'm guessing for refreshment to be taken!

[DOC37V]

Lynx 1062 still exists AFAIK

Preserved WM Nats there are

1026
1037
1051 (non runner)

1825 (spares only)
1849

1041 was preserved but may now have bitten the dust up north as the owning company ceased trading and the new owner wanted stupid money for it. A complete waste :(

There is a metrorider at Aston Manor, 685.

Is 1849 a DP example? 

[winston]

Is 1849 a DP example?

No, it was one of the wheelchair accessible ones, with a wheelchair lift on the n/side
