Drive a Mercedes down Milton Street you wish you had a B6/Enviro

Similar to Caldmore, people parking on the pavement and double yellow lines, actually anywhere you like doesn't help the drivers when to get through especially as buses regularly meet trying to get past each other, absolute nightmare especially for the larger buses like the omnilinks.

think it was mentioned on here that two of the PE Enviro 200s will be unbranded.

I know 823 is one, which is the other please, if there is one?
Looking at the Tony's photographs of them on the main site 823 is the only unbranded PE Enviro 200. 824-30 are all branded.

oh yes.... just try taking a merc down there on a Friday afternoon when everyone piles in and out of the mosque......... millimeters each side. and that is not an exaggeration.
an empty bus is a happy driver.

I guess 1622 will be next and will be a shame as its been at WB from new along with 1526 another one in TWM livery, hope 1534 doesn't get withdrawn soon as it's the last the ex branded 404 merc at WB.

Do we know where 1600 has gone, Miller Street, another garage?

1526 wasn't new to WB, it was new to BC and was Network Harborne branded (1515-1526 and 1556-1577 were new to BC)

I knew somebody was going to say this I knew that 1526 wasn't new to WB and was new to BC for the Harborne network must be the way I worded as i mentioned 1622 was new to WB and along with 1526 in TWM livery probably should of used a commar to break it up I suppose, my mistake.

What bus broke down on you, WB driver?
