5412 when pressed reasonably hard was making a fantastic wooshing sound last week, it really was an incredible noise.

And if you do go in for any Wolverhampton buses 5516 is also worth a look, seems to run for ever in electric only mode, only one I've been on when it changes into second gear before the engine kicks in and gets up to about 15-20 MPH, using my phone GPS

Yeah I noticed 5412 a few weeks back. 5414 also makes a loud 4607-like whistling sound when pushed hard

I'm not really keen on ZF Tridents or filming BC Routes but I will if I see it empty :P

Matt, Can't really compare 5414's whistle to 4607 as i rode 4607 today on the 59 and its whistling sound has gone

Thought you might! I meant the whistling sound it used to have, the one that kicks in at high revs in first gear and carries on till the driver eases off. 5414 does a similar one (last time I had it anyway) where when the revs went up a whistle kicked in

Thought i might what? Anyway shame 4607's whistle has gone now as it made a good sound unique to other WN tridents but now it sounds just like an average trident :(

Thought you might ride 4607 at some point today given it's been on the 59

But why the exclamation mark (!)? Indicates you are angry/Shouting?

No, an exclamation mark doesn't always mean you're angry...

No i was asking if you intended it tht way?

Of course not, what would I be angry at?

Seriously, why does every topic you two post in end in a heated discussion about various human emotional states? No one is interested.

Please gents, bus video discussions only please!

Do you have a link to a video of 4607 whistling? Cheers

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.

I agree entirely! It's not me though...

I can't find a listed video of 4607 on Youtube, sorry.

I'll probably feel like I'm on a London bus if I eventually catch it ;)
