17 Enviro400s are branded, so there will be unbranded ones on there as well and/or Trident's

When YW Were down to their last Fleetline (the first time around) that was out on all day service too, usually the 6 or the S3. 6921 by the way!

What a memory!

After 16 years away from Brum, I tempted to come back to YW, I know it's not the job it used to be before someone says but I may give it a go, especially if they redo short ATM.

Just seen 4387 on the Walsall Road, heading into Birmingham by the Church Lane Traffic Lights. Not In Service, but it had vertical lines on the display, in a rectangle

On its way back from Walsall Paintshop where the nearside has had a few replacement panels put on

I didn't want to clog up the Pensnett thread talking about this but, IF it is true that YW are gaining PBs older enviros, will we also get 4698?

That's what I was thinking but with it being a ZF euro 3, YW don't seem to like them as 4425 and 4426 proved! I also have a gut feeling as to which route they would be for...

4751 has had accident damage repairs, and has lost its offside fleetnumber and the blue branding below the front window

Yardley Wood also appear to have finally rolled out the new Matrix programming 4333-4341 have had for the last month! I actually prefer it, never liked the old skinny numbers.

I've noticed a few like that yes, with the 'chunky' bold text on the destination line.

Also noticed on the 6 that it now says 'via Camp Hill & Sparkhill' as one of the via points now.
