3301 has bad GPS kit.

All 3 are on the 7/7A today

Yeah, about that... 3305 just got swapped onto the 70A for a trip, since the driver taking over on the 7 isn't type trained.

Any views/comments are my own and do not reflect those of my employer.

Ok thanks - a couple of B7RLEs on the 7 now. Presumably they've all gone home for the day - one showing on 7A in the garage!

Good they're gradually coming back though.

Did 3305 get into Blakenall as well, seeing 70a & 29 interwork, I believe?

Yeah, it went out on a 29 when it returned to Walsall, before going back to garage.

Are there now E200 duties on the 31 / 32, combined with other duties, like there used to be, when a B6 came off the Alumwell route onto the 301 a few years ago?

No but after 36 and 19 allocations there is 4 spare so the 31 might get the odd one as the 8 and 29 has this week.

Maybe what they should do is leave the X51 as it is then do a more direct route to compete with the 1 that runs on Saturdays...
