Not sure if it's still on but, a B6LE on the 25C, departed W'ton about 17:50, as well as an Enviro200 earlier in the day, 841, departed W'ton Bus station about 16:15 on route 25C clockwise, seems strange seeing the Enviro's on routes by where i live, still getting used to it

Ahh... That was brilliant - 634 went up the hill verrrry slowly! Had the young pedestrians (teenagers) running up the hill to take pictures or video the bus struggling up the hill. Passengers laughed and shouted "wa-hey!" once reached to the top. :P It was really nice to experience it again, reminded me of the days on 283. Yup, glad I made a good last minute decision going on 634. ;D

Hahaha, if the driver had just climbed the hill on full revs rather than chug chug chug chug chug , you'd have got up the hills quicker

Haha. ;D He couldn't because he went around the mini roundabout in Farm Road. :P

To get a good run up the hill, you need to avoid turning left into farm road...Although that section is pointless anyway!

Only thing is that the buses must turn left anyway or there would be a nice downhill stroll because It'd be pointless putting a stop at the bottom of the hill for buses going up

In other news, just spotted a Merc on PE246, Rusells Hall bound for Stourbridge approx 2025 which I believe is a night board

The B6 would have come off the 27. 841 is out on lates. Worked the 20:45 27 from W'ton.

4009 was on the 255 this afternoon
4566 was on WN2
4563 was on WN1 this afternoon

1670 is still out on WN59. Should do the last one from W'ton at 23:24.
840 stayed out on 59's till 20:38 (Before finishing its duty and arrived in Wolves only 14 mins late)

Its been already posted but i saw 640 on the 1 and 620 on the 2. Managed to get pics of both

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.
