They have e-Fan crap fitted that's why. Take it you don't like blaring cooling fans?

They do, don't they? Forgot about that.

Take a look at the 11 lol. Blaring cooling fans as they used to on all of them! I've seen and heard a couple AG ALX400s with loud cooling fans around too.

Yup, when there's an 11 round the corner in this weather, you know about it. If I'm driving past a branded Gemini with the windows down, I've learnt to cover my ear.

4518 was surprisingly quiet when I saw it last week, a shadow of its former self

Has been a pretty tough day on the Walsall Road routes owing to various car accidents, there was an incident at Scott Arms and another on the he canal bridge going out of city after Lancaster Circus. Still managed to beat one of our bosses to work though. Am on 6725 coming out of Brum now and thankfully it looks like things ate getting back to normal.

Issue and diversion is city bound only. Walsall bound is NLR.

Looking great now fully complete, looked great at the AG open in the Walsall Heritage minus the decals etc.

Any chance of it appearing at Aston Manor on Sunday?

It all the faults have been fixed. Not sure yet. 2957 & 3225 should be attending

Wow. Utterly fantastic.
Wonderful! Shame it didn't have 4391's trap, means it can't be used on the 51 :(

That was the whole point. So that it stays on local Walsall routes

If it would have had a trap it would have been painted crimson. One of the reasons it got authorised was because it didn't have one

Well there's a chance it may get on late night 37's, as that does get deckers (apart from on a Sunday).
