Oddities, defects, faults - things wrong with NX vehicles (Reports Only/No Comments)

Been like that a while now; IIRC this is also the one where the rear display doesn't work also? This (ex99) batch of E200s have a lot of issues with their displays, imo.

804's front display is a bit dodgy. On a similar note, 5504's rear display never shows the route number; I don't know if it's broken, or missing - like one had been from one of the B7TL Geminis for a while

EDIT: Oh, right.  :P On the other hand, I am 100% certain there is one with a broken display.  ;)

I don't think 813's rear display is working either, at least it wasn't when I saw him last Sunday

All those 7 branded buses have an poster near the rear advertising.

it's got a poster this is blocking the name on the rear.

4849 has the incorrect MK1 Environment bumpers both front corners and is missing it's name and part of the gold pinstripe on the front N/S panel

4800 has had MK2 bumpers a while now, as well. If worth mentioning ???

On the nearside. 4844 also has a MK1 bumper on the offside. It doesn't cause a problem with the bus, I just don't like them because they don't seem to fit properly on the other model, so you get bigger panel gaps and they look odd having a different bumper on each side. You notice this much more on 4733

Oh, right.  :P Would it be fair to say the mismatched bumpers are uncommon across the fleet? 4764 seems to have a mk2 bumper (offside) - while we're on the topic.  :o

4951 has mk1 bumpers and they seem to fit perfect

Yes, I think that may have had a different grille too.
Quite a few Coventry examples are the same, with MK2 bumpers

6741 is missing it's green halo at the front. I think this one hit a branch on the Beacon Road a couple of days ago though, so that's probably why.

2212 is missing its rear 37 branding.

4745(?) missing the 82/87 rear upper window branding.

[Gareth]

4854 is missings it's adblue flap. Looks like it's been quite crudely ripped off.

[Jack]

4494's rear Display is stuck on '0'.
4779 has a Grey Bell at the rear of the lower deck.
4859's side display is showing half of the Via points.

The middle offside window has been fitted with a window like that from the rear half of the vehicle (with the higher decency screen).

Apologies if no one understands what I mean. One of those 'have to see for yourself' moments. ::)
