I would agree with you there @Kevin. This is a grand gesture by NXWM for a long serving passenger & her family to remember her by

There are quite a few with special meanings for passengers, council/Centro people as well as just the 'It's my daughter's name' ones

You only have to see the joy this Acocks Green driver got from having a Gemini named after his late mother

That's true I agree as I have seen a few buses with name plaques for different people but didn't realise some of the names had such heartfelt meanings to them like with Iris or people like Ronnie Morgan for instance who a lot of people have had the pleasure. For all the names that mean a lot it is great that NXWM are allowing them to name their buses after them @Tony
