@I love Walsall buses,

Not noteworthy to see Tridents on the 29, 301/2 at all now the 10/10A are B7RLE (Urban 1 and Urban 2).
@Jack is the urban 1 the older B7RLES and urban 2 the newer B7RLES

I've heard the heritage running day has been postponed. So probably just standard B7RLE's or Platinum's on Saturday.

As it's been said quite a few times on the forum, the allocation for the 10/A is now predominantly B7RLE's. I've been told though that apparently there will be two decker boards once the schools return.

The 29 seems to have to gone to Trident allocation now since the Urban 2's have gone to the 10/10A.

Was there any particular reason why 855 was on the 13 yesterday evening? I have noticed various 301/302 branded B7RLE's and 37 or 4 branded Omnilinks on the 11/13 as of late, do Walsall no longer have enough non-branded ones to cover the whole requirement for the route?

Probably because BP can only have single deck with the 10/A now single deck using 9 boards. 29/301/302 will have Tridents on. As there are 12 branded 301/2 enough for all day boards they'll often be elsewhere.  1751/1754 was on 10 today.

BP can have deckers, the 45 gets them on occasion. The issue is a low bridge between the depot and BP as far as I'm aware, so Walsall garage don't put them on routes out of there. There has been deckers on the 11/13 in the past, I've seen a photo of one at the stop outside the Builders Merchants next to the Piano Bridge in Tipton.
