Lukeee - Instead of it not using Birchfield Rd its using the overpass/underpass same as 934/5/6, but each time it joins at a diffrent section?

Shame they carnt make it an X56 would be more beneficial I think as I've probably stated elsewhere

Two 56's this morning 1 Centro full to the brim with 3 standing and 1 dart also full with 1 standee  :D, must say the 56 peaks do very well for themselves, the dart decided to use the Expressway to make up time  ;D, the driver of the Centro looked surprised  ;D ;D

Fantastic! Just what I want to hear! Is the 56 timetabled before or after the 936 as wasnt it like 5 minutes after at one point? Hopefully they have put it in front of the 936....

I haven't, and I live on the route

To be fair, now it's debranded it could be anywhere on any route. Or indeed, off the road which I suspect is more likely.

That's why I didn't mention anything about people spotting it on the 002 ;) I want to try and get a glimpse of it soon so I hope it is put back on the 002 at some point ;)

Yes although it should logically be treated like the Eclipses (i.e. 30832-30834 and 30940-30943) so should only be used on routes like the 4, 002, 202 and possibly 56, 301, etc.
