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.

I didn't know this, thanks for telling. I will pop over to have a nose. What time does it start/finish?

Bet anybody there'd be an E400 there. Only 2 more days with my valid bus pass, this is CERTAINLY on the list. After this, I hope I could get to Wolverhampton on time for a quick ride on one of the Spectras. But Centenary Square? It feels a bit cramped. Certainly the space outside the REP & Library would've been more 'adequate'...

Yeah, I think that it is the one outside the ICC and new library. Quite often confused with Chamberlain Square, which is the smaller area on the other side of Paradise Circus/Forum by the Council House and Town Hall.

Yep, Centenary Square is on Broad Street, outside the ICC, Rep and New Library.

Buses of the future? So NXWM have mastered time travel have they? Haha! Seems an odd thing to say.
