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.

4465 expired in Chelmsley Wood tonight. Finally been lifted by a Mansfield truck at 11.30pm (it had been there for over 90 minutes). I think 4428 replaced it

I never made it out of the garage with 4303 this morning - transmission issues

4352 (I think it was) was taken out of service in Merry Hill this afternoon. Had a hole in the rear bodywork. It looked like to me caused by the mirror arm of another bus hitting it attempting to overtake. Driver took a pic of the damage, then left for the garage

2098 being made ready for a ride on the back of a Mansfield Tow Truck in Birmingham Street Stourbridge around 13:45!
