Exactly what I have put.

He emailed NX asking for it to be put aside for him

Oh ok I thought that was what you meant just wasn't 100% sure and wanted to check.

The problem I have is you put your name against 1452 at Lea Hall. The reserve fleet team got it roadworthy and moved it to Miller Street where it is still sitting. Something they definitely didn't have to do for a bus that NX are selling at a loss.

You stated earlier you had a WA driver involved in 1421. If you had he would have been able to tell you it hasn't moved since I put it back against the fence after the photo session at the 301 running day. It also still has it's ticket printer on, so is 'not being prepared for scrap' as you told me you had heard

I haven't been told about 1452. This was the last email I recieved.

Personally Michael I think your taking the Michael out of people who have a genuine interest in Buses. I suggest you delete your account until you are old enough to join in the conversation! You are getting on my nerves! I'm sure I am speaking for many on here!!

If you don't want me here, fine I'll go!

But now you have chosen 1421, did you say to NX that you no longer wish to pursue 1452 or 1455

This preservation isn't going to happen. That's what it looks like from where I'm standing and probably most of the forum.

You might as well get this thread locked and move on.

As much as I'd love to see a B10 preserved I have to agree with you.

I have a number of questions:
1) where will you store 1421?
2) who will drive it?

@Trident 4194 Already been asked!

I am 99% certain 1415 will be preserved, and the prospective purchaser is looking at putting it in line 33 livery

Great news, that bus has been withdrawn for quite a while, surprised it hasn't been sent to the scrapyard after being withdrawn for that long. I believe it's this bus that has been put in to the full blue livery.

However I'm not the only one involved in the project. I have a Central Buses driver who used to own a Wright Handybus and a PB driver involved. I'm just doing bits and bobs.

And before anyone thinks so, it is not me
