When did this beast arrive at Pensnett?

We have had it around 12 months all depots were given one for movements within the depot instead of calling out Mansfield.

Where is it parked when not in use? I've not seen it before. makes sense, especially with Pensnett housing part of the reserve fleet

It's tucked away within a container opposite the garage

are enthruaists allowed to look around the withdrawn buses area and take pictures

No, it's private property. There are big notices on the gates to the withdrawn yard/staff car park stating 'Trespassers will be prosecuted' or something along those lines.....

Beat me to it! Was on the 120 earlier and passed another Eclipse 2 on the 140

(Ironically the 120 I got today was 2103, which used to be based at AG)
My locals:
2 - Birmingham to Maypole | 3 - Birmingham to Yardley Wood
11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath

And you still decided to let yourself in and have a look round and gain access to buses in the garage.....
