The 50 & 57 are run by Wolverhampton (Ring & Ride) depot. The new arrivals mentioned by Alex on the previous page, plus 2107 are based there.
57  is wednsbury as there was a 66reg on the   today & I cant see them running 1 bus from wednsbury so I think 50 is wednsbury as well

Worth noting, it's probable that YJ66 ANV is a spare bus, should both the spare 67 plate, and 2107 be out of use, as ANV got on there on the first day of Igo running the 57.
And no, the 50 and 57 are both Wolverhampton.

Saw an orange 2014 solo on the 10H yesterday. New acquisition, or repaint? I don't remember the plate.

If it's the one I know about it is YJ64 DWD which has so far had a very nomadic life, Photo appearing on the main site tonight

Is nobody looking. On the service information boards in the QE hospital all 10H services show they are going to Birmingham, non to Quinton, so I would suggest they are all the same wherever they are

Yes it is YJ64DWD I saw it last week in colmore row on 10H

YJ10 E?? Something like that. I just saw it between a Gemini on the 31, and then 4652 begins the Solo also on the 31. Maybe these changes are good news for the 31, seeing as it's a 20 minute service and both buses were together. This was on Shirley's road heading towards Acocks Green village at about 14:55ish

The site has indeed gone down hill. Just looked at it and notice Christmas times etc and thought that is early. However it was Christmas 2016 not taken down. 167 and 168 timetables still shown under igo. Shame because it is such a well set out site but if the information is not up to date then it is no better than useless. Also every day loads of tweets about lost service etc but never any tweets "selling" the services
They appear to have finally updated it!
