West Bromwich Garage

[2900]

I noticed a merc dumped in the far corner of the out station ,with a red label stuck on windscreen, looked like an ex Hockley vehicle.

It won't be 1656 as that is at Coventry

[AndrewLee]

Yeah couldn't remember the number - it was dead anyway

[uniquicity]

The dead Merc at Oak Road is 1697.

R.I.P 1697, a favourite of mine, a few years ago when PE were short of Mercs and had to lend one from WB, for some reason quite often it would be 1697 and would seem to end up on the X96.
