Does anybody know when NXWM will replace the remaining darts at WB :)

Probably in about 12 months time

No new vehicles of any type are currently on order. The only decision so far made is that the Darts and B6s at WB will be replaced by new vehicles next year, so all other comments in this and other threads are at the moment just guesswork.

One thing Daimler Mercedes Benz are good at is producing excellent Diesel engines, I do miss the sound of the 0405n for all its faults you couldn't knock that 12 litre engine.

Front end now repainted. I wonder if it will regain its 5 branding, or lose it altogether?

Bit of a strange one, noted 4297 on 74 at 12.30......but it was at the Scott arms and about to turn on to the 51 route heading for city, with a few passengers on board, assuming there was a blockage on the soho road.

That might have been the one I saw in Sutton Coldfield showing 74.

No it hasn't. It was sent for repaint not long after transfer from Yardley Wood. It would still be like 4057 (with connection bars) if not repainted again, also on the 5 today.

another couple of mercs parked up Oak lane waiting to be scrapped. unsure of the numbers but one is in TWM colours and another is red. If i take a bus from there in the next few days i'll get the fleet numbers for y'all, and i my cameras working a photo.
an empty bus is a happy driver.
