B10 (I think 1407 or 1408 - a bit too far to see clearly as I'm on 11A right now) on 49, seen in Cotteridge at 16:03.

Saw that same journey in Bilston! Didn't think it was that unusual actually, thought it was usually a mix of mercs and B6s

Hmmmm. No. 26 mostly gets the B6s because 26 interworks with 62/62A. I rarely see mercs on 26.

Last night, (15th November), I saw an E400H on (WN) 79 arriving in the bus station at 19:30. Could not see the fleet number, I'm afraid. I was on the other side waiting for the 82.

WB 4639 on (WA/WB?) 45, seen in Walsall Bradford Place at 11:15am.

WB45  ;)

Ah, thank you. 😜

I saw 244 with a smashed up front end being towed through Kings Heath this morning on a Mansfield Lorry, heading southbound.

Wow. I saw 244 on WA39 last week. Didn't think it would be smashed a week later... I personally don't think it would be repaired but yeah, we'll see what happens with 244 soon.

1670 on 529.

2016 (I think, or is it 2019?) on 529 today.

2016 has a big black & orange megarear, does that match the one you saw?

Oh, thanks Nitromatt1, that helped! It was 2016 then!  ;)

Thanks for the replies everyone, and for the picture, Tony. I wonder why 1408 is in PB garage (repairs, perhaps?).

[I presume they have came from Yardley Wood]

Walsall seems more likely, using the Expressway. I don't think they would have been going to Miller Street, they wouldn't use the Expressway going north.

I presume they have came from Yardley Wood, but if they are withdrawn, then are there enough single deckers for the 27 without taking too many OmniLinks off the 6? If they are not withdrawn, then a parts run or on their way for a MOT maybe?

Yes, you are right, both buses have had the blind of "27 Maypole".

Hello everyone,

I just saw 1408 and 1450 were driven by the men in orange hi-vis jackets. They were going north on the expressway near Aston. Anyone may have an inkling as to where they may be heading to?

Thanks in advance.

4804 on 222. Just saw it in Dudley Bus Station.
