Walsall Garage

4735 is in for refurb. 244 was in the engine bay having attention, so presumably they are trying to sort out the 'low power' again.

Four of the ex Rotala Levantes are currently at Walsall

1752 1754 1755 (unsure of) but i know 1770 1781 1782 - got new trim on their repaint/refurb (now old moquette)

1751 1753 1756 - 1765 1775 1785 1786 - grey dot trim on repaint/refurb

1754 has the old moquette seen it in Kingstanding on the 935 while I was on 4133 on the 934 heading into City

1642 is still dumped outside the paintshop, looking exactly the same as it did last time I mentioned it was there

Is it due to be repainted Tony as Merc repaints seemed to stop a while ago?

Is 4135 inside the paint shop?

I didn't look inside the painshop today, just popped in to refuel our minibus and speak to the Operations manager about the visit

1755 isn't refurbed Ashley :) Rob, 1752 is in the moquette that was standard before the grey dot moquette :)

Anyone noticed that the logos on the side of 4681 don't quite line up with each other?

It's clearly had several lower panels replaced, one is from the nearside of another bus, as the connection bars go in the opposite direction.  ;)

That's quite a cool effect, I like it! These buses must be due a repaint fairly soon as quite a few are looking fairly tatty, but the interiors seem to have lasted really well though

has one of the red panels under the driver window been replaced as well? looks to be a different shade of red or more faded than those around it.

I think our gems are ok. With the exception of a few that let the side down - 4528
