I have the in-service Xplore Dundee fleet as this:
431-435; 731-734; 1774-1787; 2030-2058; 4025-4026/4028/4036/4042-4043/4045-4046/4053/4056/4074/4103/4110-4113/4115-4124; 4680-4686; 5422-5430;
7001-7018; 7067; 7166** (114)

I guess 7166 may have gone by now? The fleet numbers/vehicle types here, have a much more NXWM feel about them - the withdrawing of the 7xxx Volvo's helping.

I agree with Dundee having 113 buses allocated (i.e. 114 - 7166 now withdrawn)

Just reading back on Tony's list - I think 4340 at YW has been missed out, although the total of 47 Tridents (and 135 in total at YW) is still correct.

This is quite the impressive list, and I must thank yourself Tony for taking the time to compile it.

Makes you think how different it'll be 12 months from now with the addition of the new arrivals and some withdrawals

1344-45/49-50/55/68/77/84-86; 1432/34/50; 1462-Static Trainer; 1501/5/8-9/12/14; 1689; 3601; 9023 (M723 KPD); 9057 (BT57 ENJ); 9315 (P315 DVE); 9951/9959; BX 54 ZWV. (28)

I think 3601 is still hanging around and presumably is still a [route] trainer.

I think the list refers to regular passenger service vehicles, hence why 3225 at YW and the 'Health-Buzz' at CV are omitted.

My locals:
2 - Birmingham to Maypole | 3 - Birmingham to Yardley Wood
11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath

Looking at those allocations, the active fleet totals 1554 buses. I think there are 28 vehicles in the Trainer fleet (including 1462 & 3601). There are two additional buses; preserved 3225 and Heath Buzz 1687. The withdrawn/reserve fleet I have as totalling 136 [64 of which are O405N's] although there are likely to have been further Merc/Volvo sales. That equates to 1720 buses plus 9 NX coaches on-loan and 2 in reserve. Just need Tony's sold for scrap/re-sale updates.

No vehicles actually left for scrap in December, several vehicles have sales agreed to scrap merchants and are just waiting collection

Thanks for the list Tony. It is something I have tried to do for myself at various times. My list for 1.1 2015 is  as follows.
Acocks Green          150.
Bordesley                 49
Birmingham Cent'l   218
Perry Barr               171
Yardley Wood          134
Walsall                    181
West Bromwich        162
Wolverhampton        200
Pensnett                  112
Coventry                 152
Dundee                   110
I think this makes  a good comparison. Incidently I make it 55 B7RLE,s giving a total of 203 as of 1.1.2016.
