I take it there are a couple of Darts off the road, as there have been B6LEs / Enviro200s on the 41/44 for the past 3 days
3610 was parked at Miller Street this morning.

3610 in service today on the 41/44.

4267 is out on the 74E/75.

Just noticed 4048, a 5 branded President, has a yellow stripe (just one colour) like other branded buses. Apologies in advance if this is a common knowledge. I have not visited West Bromwich for several weeks.

4048 was on the 89 on Saturday and it still had part of its branding missing (On the nearside above the doors and offside above the cab)

Oh? The big "5 West Bromwich to Sutton Coldfield" sticker? It was a quick glance while I was getting on 45, I'm 75% certain 4048 has got them back on. Someone would need to confirm for me - I'm in Walsall now.

Yeah, it's been like that for a while now. I'm surprised they haven't either rebranded it or debranded it, they just seem happy to leave it the way it is. 4048 appears on the 83/89 fairly regularly

It has been fully rebranded, with the addition of the yellow stripe

Another one has had the yellow around the LED replaced too, with the stripe added also

Thanks for explaining, John. I was right then! ;)

Blimey. Just saw 568 on 45, it had the uhm... What's the name... The rectangular cover under the front windows missing! Should it be in service having that not covered and looking like that?

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.

Maybe. I will show you a picture to clarify.
