No, not the Fox one. Seems the end has began. I haven't seen 4763 for a while and that gave a horrendous performance when I had it on the 16 last year. I wouldn't be surprised if that's had it as well.

Thurmaston, start getting some replacements, new or second-hand, ASAP.

Those are only 13 years old, good few years left in them yet

That's been with them for quite a few days now. Was on the 84/5 yesterday.

2731 has moved to Milton Keynes.

LazyGuy222 · August 02, 2019, 02:36:52 PM

4752, the Midland Fox heritage DB250, is back on the road. It is on the 5/A today.

B7TLs 4009 and 4010 have got themselves in such bad condition recently that their exhausts give out black fumes now.

Notable sightings today:

2991 on the 127
3300 on the 29
14-branded 3765 on the 5/5A
4011-4013 and 4200 all on the 31/31A
4027 on the 84/85
Still no sign of 4763, mind you, I haven't seen 4777 for a while either.

Only allocation there i think would be notable would only be 3765 on the 5/A. All others aren't really that surprising or rare.

Not even the Versa on the 127? Things have got bad, and I had one of the refurbished Geminis originally intended for that route on the 5A yesterday.

There was one on the 127 a few days ago, and prior to that a week ago.

4752 was on the 53. DB250s aren't rare on the 53, but it's the Midland Fox one.

3717 made an appearance on the 29 today
4533 is on the 127 along with another branded MMC.
