It could be a transfer with one of the ex Yourbus E300's entering service at RH

In decent condition internally as well with all Red Diamond notices removed. Just a shame it kept conking out...  ::)

A b7rle must have been taken off the 002 then as it was definitely full b7rle when I was on there earlier. 30811, 30806, a royale, 30862 and two 002 branded b7rle's.

20539 could of been the 7th bus on the service and stayed on to do the evening trips on the 002.

I saw an 002 at 8pm at Colley gate heading towards Halesowen and it was an Royale

What have they done to the rocket????
862 was every Ex First drivers favourite bus as it was quick, and reliable.

I hope the Rh Volvos come back and the 6 new to Diamond Volvos go to Tividale and the other E300 come to RH as RH needs them just as much as Tividale.
Midland Red West, one of the best Companies to serve Redditch, with some of the best buses.

Been lucky with unusual buses today

Saw a red B7 on the 56 earlier this afternoon from a great distance, possibly 862?

Interesting that... Maybe another has transferred over as 862 was reported on the 4H? Unless it was taken off and put on the 56?

Forgot to report 20538 on yesterday's 50

Wish I had followed it now and investigated, I just saw it turning into Carrs Lane from Selfridges but it was definitely a red eclipse on the 56, must have been around half 3.

I think Long Acre must be short as they had 20132 on the 50 on Wednesday.

Odd as the LAC allocation of darts/solos must far exceed the PVRs of the services they operate...

You'd think that but obviously not! Suppose if they have several off the road, buses don't like the cold much anyway so perhaps they are really just struggling atm. This last couple of weeks Primos have been appearing on the 50 too.

There was an SB120 on the 56 all day yesterday (could have been 'YJ02 PZO')
