FSY 63003 - just shy of 51,500 miles this afternoon 63037 was on 52,550 yesterday. Was trying to see what it was on 037 the other day, knew it'd be higher than the rest as it was the regular on the mega miler 51 boards. |

37514 was just about to clock up 300,000 miles yesterday morning (Saturday), great bus actually, totally shows up the E400s for performance and build quality, while 63035 had 51,500 miles on it last night.

591,000 miles on Stagecoach in Chesterfield's 47282. Excellent bus actually, much better than a Solo has any right to be (especially for one that old). Mercedes engine in it I think (certainly sounded like a Mercedes engine, but I know Stagecoach have put MAN engines into their Solos in times gone by)? Great squeal out of its Allison gearbox!

Stagecoach: 22433 - 499,000, not sure if this is miles or km as the clocks have km/h with mph in small print and I know most buses with km/h as the main unit of speed have the mileage in km rather than miles (though the Scania above has km/h clocks and the mileage is definitely in miles). Either way, that's not bad for what are known to be unreliable buses! 499,000 miles seems like an awful lot for an 07 reg bus, but it's not impossible. This one did have a stop light on as it happened! On this again this evening, now 507,000 miles, I'm pretty sure that this is miles not km as I could have sworn that I saw 'miles' displayed on the odometer. And it certainly feels like a bus that has clocked up that much, it's absolutely wrecked, no power, roaring, stop light on, rattles like crazy. I was on TM Travel's 1130 earlier this morning, and, despite being nine years older, was in much better shape and didn't rattle half as much. Then again, that bus was an Olympian, so it's no great surprise. |

Bristol after DDA mods, there's another one here (62192 I think but I'll confirm) and another one is due anytime. They look like they've had some right hammer and as rough as our native older BLEs.

Thanks. That's some serious mileage clocked up in only 14 years! What kind of mileage is on our B10BLEs at this stage?

Not very accurate as you never know if the clock is the original but most of Rotherham's are a bit over the million. All the T MAKs at Rotherham have had some either hammer though either a long spell on Maltbys or a long spell on 53s or 52s and then they've been hammered after at Rotherham until now really. |
