Maybe not unusual, but I noticed a Tamworth B9 on a 116 working this morning - the 0824 arrival in Birmingham, which returns to Tamworth as a 110.

I haven't seen a double decker on the 116 for a long time.  Of course, until a few weeks ago most if not all journeys n the 116 interworked with the 112, which had to be single deck.

Does anyone know if the 0710 116 from Tamworth (0824 in Birmingham), at least, is scheduled to be double deck?

Deckers on the 116 used to be commonplace until about 2011...

The 0824 into Birmingham is the only interworking so far as I know. The route needs 9 buses and there are 8 deckers so there's a good chance if availability is a bit better than recently!
Only Guy Arabs (a choice of 63) stopped at my front door 1957-1964!

It is unusual to get the right buses on the right route ;)

This is a personal appeal... For Pete's Sake just save the #!@?$&% Scania's - don't let them follow the Dennis Falcons!

Not rare, the last 64 weekdays is on a 19 board.

Incidentally, 4797 is now here.

Please Bob be reasonable and show some respect..Many entries of my Flickr set 'Chavy Britain' are from the actions of such people...A culture we can all learn from and just because 99% of them have a drink or drug issue there are others, some of the pensioners for example use their own passes, some passengers even use their sticks as an aid, not a fashion accessorie unlike many of the Low Hill chavs 'Gracias' for example..... I'll leave it there  ;D ;D
