Is a Primo on the 16 normal??

Not really, a mix of Solos, Darts, and B7RLEs are the norm on the 16

Cheers @John

As if to emphasise how nothing is unusual on the 16, caught a solo into town on there yesterday just as a centro passed the other way in hamstead village, en route we passed a dart, a B7RLE, a hybrid versa and an E200

@Kevin - What about an Enviro 300? One zoomed past me today, while I was on my way to the 8A bus stop. E300s looks nice on the 16 actually - pity I couldn't catch a ride today. Could've well been 30489 or 30490.

Bit weird why the 99/96 gets a Hybrid and the S3 in turn has a Blue Diamond Optare Solo (as in old red seat version) for the day  ;)

red and white MPD (I presume 20507?) on the 56, seen around 10:30 this morning.
I'm on Flickr and Youtube

A long red diamond dart has replaced 30408, which was on this morning
Also a plain blue dart on 142

What time departures did you see 30455 and 20501?

Also I'm glad to see a reasonable bus on the 192. Needed In my opinion

That means 30408 was definitely swapped

20505 is also in the 4H mixup. 1625 off halesowen via the loop
