Wow! It's been a while since I've been on these Ex First (and GNW) B5LHs, especially with the arrival of slightly newer ones from the Oxford Bus Company to displace these to Oldham. The last time I've been on 13164 (or 3004 should I say) was in September 2023. It took me 2 failed attempts before I manage to catch this.

The former Queens Road B5LHs has certainly seen better days as they spend more days off the road than on, almost like the current Metroline B9TLs that are only really used during peak times.

13164 is the only B5LH with the original Go North West 2019 paint job and interior to remain in regular peak time service whilst the rest stay kept away from the road.

It's mind-blowing how the 2008/2009 B9TL Geminis, 2011 B5LH Gemini 2s and 2016 B5LH eVoSetis that were once together with Go North West at Queens Road depot are now based different depots and different Bee operators, all being kept apart from each other.
