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.

It has been a while since they put a B7 ALX400 on the 82/87 so I'd say yes as they seem to use the 03/53 reg Gems on the 82/87 if any 06 Gems are off the road :)

18 06 reg Gemini. 24 running boards. There are bound to be 6 other vehicles, even if 4700-17 were all on the road

639 on WN4 to today.

Blimey that is rare! seen a Merc on the 4 earlier as well.

Spotted 4002 on schools this morning, and then at 1125am it was heading up the ring road and into town on the 3. Spectra on the 3, somewhat rare.
Spectra's are regulars on schools I believe :) 601 was on the 4 the other day with 639 and 1670 on the 5! The Spectra on the 3 was probably covering for a trident on that board although a nice spot :) (I'm still yet to get a ride on Spectron the 3)

Today:

4869 on WA8/89. Saw In Wednesfield Going towards Walsall about 16:05 (Caught it this evening on the 19:35 from W'ton that goes just to Bloxwich)
638 was on peak board 59/09 this morning (Never usually a B6)

EDIT: E400H 5417 on WN59 This evening

Spectra's solid on Schools, need to get one barking up Holloway Bank on the 10 (assuming that ramp doesn't work as usual at Perton)
Nice to see a bit of variety creeping in on the 4 and 5 from the staple diet of ovlov's, interesting that there were 2 different vehicles on the 5 though as route branded 2061 was on Compton Schools! Assume fresh off maintenance.
Preserving a bit of West Midlands heritage with 1037 and 1849.
