It's probably just so that city routes use newer buses considering that pretty much all of pbs dd routes go into the city (i dont even think they have any routes that arent city routes in general other than the 28) while WB and AG can just throw them on other routes

They did for many years, the 61 plates from Walsall replaced them

Would anyone be able to tell me where i can get the 937 in Bham City Centre now? Have to get it Monday, does it still go from Dale End?

2 reasons the Geminis left PB 

1. To replace alx400 at AG and WB.
2. New PB opened in December 2022 fewer vechile types less spare parts..

WA sent 4854 - 4862 to release Geminis to AG and WB.

Just found out 4573 did the X51 to birmingham a couple days ago. Quite surprising as i havent seen an ALX other than 4125 operate on the X51 in quite a while!

It's a 6 board that switches to a X51 at 1615 wabs. There's also another 6 board turns to a 51 for 1539 walsall bus station departure.

Speaking of 4125, it was nice to see it out and about this morning heading into Birmingham on the 935.

Coventry Electric went past 4618 on its way out of the City Centre and up James Watt Queensway to. E104 I think it might have been.

Apparently the service runs on the 6 service to Sutton Coldfield until mid afternoon then transfers on to a Birmingham route.
