I think it had a new engine fitted at one point. I think it's Euro 4. Or is that 4186? There was a swap between 4175 and 4186 years ago because one was fitted with an AdBlue tank. They were swapped from BC and WN. I may be confusing 4186 and 4586.

4148/4166/4172/4176/4177/4178/4179/4185/4186/4586/4619/4633/4634 are the Euro 4's. TBH it's shame they didn't do more ZF's, as they sound superb. The Euro 4 Voiths sound quirky. All were done during 2011/2012.

I have seen the pictures and the first impressions from me aren't good. Will have a look in person when it comes out so I can make a proper judgement.

@Nathan do you have a picture?

Are the Scanias that had the screens inside the bus for the 4 group being rebranded for the 4 once they are crimsoned?

One of those was on the 11 / 13 the other day with the screen stuck on the '4' description.

1848-1862 and 1878-1880 were the ones branded so I'd say those will be branded again. Correct me if I'm wrong but do 1881/2 have the announcements for the 4?

I'm sure 1880 has announcements

Can't remember about 1880 but 1878/79 did

All the previous branded Omnilinks did. But I'm positive 1881/2 have them as spares.

The alternative vehicles are either 4733-37 or 4869-70.

Why to this day do some Platinum drivers still relent when idiots want to get off the X51 in Newtown?
