Why the horns on scanias are best for making people jump.

The 45 is always WB's 'anything' route and does quite often see ALX400s. This week WB are tight on meeting SQPS requirements which started this week, so have put Scanias on some Birmingham boards.

They are all on the 70/73 today which are not classed as 'core' services.

I have just checked the BC allocations and they are 100% compliant at the moment, but if they need to change a bus there are a lot of 41xx in the garage!
