I think certain boards on the 68/70/6 interwork or at least thy used to

Bob

There was a pulsar in cannock on 74 still with full branding

Ashley

I was quoting my own sightings from two seperate days. How does interworking come into it? The 2/70/76 interwork at night and possibly also on sundays. As for daytimes I think that may be possible as well, I think the 68 and 70 interwork from the Cannock end. I think the 76 is its own entity during the day

Its just that on various occasions I have seen a particular bus operate all 3 routes on the same day. Also does the evening bus on the 68 come from another route as it is usually a bus that hasn't been on in the the daytime.

One unusual working from yesterday:
2142 on the 19. Saw pulling into Lichfield St about 16:25

Bob

I think daytime 70 /76 interwork. The 68 isnt involved

Plaxton Centro (Never caught the fleet number) and 2 branded 2701 on the 68 today. Got off 2701. 10 minutes ago coming home from Wolverhampton

arrivaaston

The centro was 3738 :-), evening 68's are a seperate route, evening services on 70 comes off a 2

So is the evening 68 a bus off the daytime service as numerous times I have seen the 20:36 from Lichfield Road in Wednesfied into Wolverhampton and it has been a different by to the daytime buses

2234 on 142/257 tonight, passed through Kingswinford around 19:15 towards Stour so presumably did the 19:40 142.

Trident 4609

2412 on the 18 (Wolverhampton-Lyndale Circular) today instead of the usual ALX200 222*/223* darts. Caught it on the 10:38 departure from Stubby Lane in Wednesfield towards Wolverhampton

Does 4212 on the 1 or 4217 on the 2 in Burton count?

The Gemini's were first allocated to Burton for the 1 (The 4 ex-London ones 4015-8 that were branded for it).

They were then swapped for 4 B9TLs from Derby, 2 of which have returned. I usually find the remaining 2 on the 7 to Lichfield, but they do appear on any route now it seems
