I'd also want a ride on 1613 before it goes I've heard it's one of the best Mercedes 0405ns remaining wouldn't know where to find it I know it is on route 49 sometimes as I've seen it outside bear wood bus interchange

The 45 & 49 are your best chances of finding 1613.

I know this thread doesn't include Spectras and B6's however I can see 4141 and 4149 have transferred to PL along with the 2 Eclipse 2's this weekend. Would it be safe to assume the Spectras and B6LE's are finished at some point this week if not tomorrow? Cheers

Not unless they fail. 662 will have to go in a couple of weeks, but hopefully the remaining 4 will survive to a 'goodbye running day'

I wouldn't have had 620 down as the final B6LE. That's not me knocking it. Just my own view is that it's never given me the fizz that the more popular ones did.

With 1593, 1627/59/77 now retired, that leaves a puny 23 Benz in service.

Is it just 7 or 8 left at PE now?

Trident 4194 · September 10, 2015, 03:46:41 PM

Glad to see them 3 to go except 1677

Yeah he's saying the three other than 1677 he's glad to see gone, meaning 1677 is the fourth

Hopefully a B10 will be preserved like the two B6's.

This will also end the 'roller blind' era as well won't it?
