I hope it's not been withdrawn as it's the last ex 404 branded merc still in service. With the arrival of the presidents from Yardley Wood I expect quite few mercs to be withdrawn soon I haven't saw 1613 for a while.

Yesterday morning saw something strange, all 3 types of WB decker in Blackheath at the same time!

I was onboard a Gemini on the 241, an ALX400 was coming in on the 127 and a President was departing on the 89.

Just an odd sight.

The Real 4778

An everyday sight in Sutton.  Albeit not usually all WB's at exactly the same time.
Don't you start.

Its a couple of weeks now since I was over but I noted 1613 working the 49 on 13th July so maybe its been withdrawn since then.....

I've seen 1613 since then.

1613 rarely seems to make it on the 45 for example and usually seems to stick to the Birmingham services such as the 83 or 89 as did most of the 16xx S reg mercs when WB had more of them and the 15xx seemed to do the West Bromwich town services I always seemed to notice.

The week I was over 1523 seemed to be allocated to the 48 on a daily basis which gave the chance of a good long spin in it.

I had 1613 on the 405 if that counts

The mercs that normally stick to the 45 are 1582/1586/1607.
