I was there 15:45 - 17:20 (then got a 144) and saw several photographers: one standing by the 60 stop, one standing by the tunnel to Smallbrook Queensway up some steps, one walking along Smallbrook Queensway taking photos, and also another couple (separate) with notepads taking numbers

I was in Moor Street yesterday for around 15-20 minutes around 15:15-15:35 and i didn't spot anyone so must of been there after i left on 4558 on the 126

Could have been me and my mate. I was wearing a blue hoody. Wasn't eating a baguette though!

On the subject of spotters, there were 4 older (sorry!) spotters on Bull Street this afternoon. One took a picture of 4779 on the 907, and a few others on High Street

The Omnibus Society held their AGM at Miller Street today so there were several 'older' bus enthusiasts in the Birmingham Area today

They were probably riding around on a Hybrid E400 visiting garages or in the actual AGM at Miller Street when you were there

Was it a BC or WN E400H Tony? Me and Matt were only there for a short while and spent most our time in Wolverhampton and Walsall

One or two spotters at Dudley this evening.

Also, a guy seemed to take a photo of the 9 I was on before getting on it this evening, although he could've just been using his flash to flag down the bus in the dark
