No Pictures sorry. But 4246 looking 'fresh' from Repaint/Refurb and with new front LED. 4432, TWM Low Floor Livery, with Morrisons All over Ad & (I think) the only bus with a cash tray. (4432 on the 24)

4246 has neither LED or has been repainted, I suspect you saw 4262 out on the 94 today

I guess so. I mention it because I rode it on the 101,  I guess I have a short term memory! :)

4136 - my favourite Trident at NXWM, I'm not even entirely sure why. 4125-4140 are my favourite batch of Tridents. 4136 also either has had it's rear dot matrix display removed, or never had one to begin with, it's just empty where the rear blind should be

One I think should be added to the Hall of Fame is 4388. Whenever it changes from 2nd to 3rd it always "Clonks" you forward and the gearbox makes a loud bang, reminds me of a Metrobus! Not just that but it has a nice noise in general, no bad screeches or other bad habits.

'Clonking you forward'.....surely that should be in the hall of 'a potential claim!!'  :o :o

Give it another couple of years to get worse and it probably will end up there! :D

4006

2 of my contenders for WN:

4015...yes 4015 for once being one of the worst rides ever to now (after some attention) being silky smooth (nearly)

4560
Never mind speed, sound, acceleration this is the smoothest bus in the garage in my opinion (or was)

4391 - Used to have a unique sound on acceleration but something happened to the engine, now the idling noise is way to dull. The suspension is good and the bodywork seems in shape.
4523 - MEGA BEAST!!!!!!! This one was speeding down a really bumpy road at 40mph with it's cooling fan going like mad, the cooling fan has like a mega beast for ages.

Ronnoc

#25
This one for having good acceleration, nice suspension and the doors were fine.

Coventry Mercedes 1678, perhaps the best remaining NX Merc?

Tara4352

1705 is mine hands offf 8) 8)

Sh4318

I would say 4512, for being the best Gemini at WB, in my opinion. It'll be even better when it comes back to WB

I'm adding my favourite bus, Central Buses' X233 NNO for a really loud and beastly engine powering up hills and I've never heard or seen it break down due to overheating (which I've had experiences on NXWM ALX400's).

Also I'm adding 4934 'Bethany-Grace' since I know a certain driver who loves it ;)
