Serious traffic jam (due to temporary lights in Witton yesterday about 09.00 meant seeing 7 Gems and one ALX400 all on the 7 in the same traffic jam (though due to how slow everything was moving there probably would have been some gaps between them when they got going).

I was stuck in that yesterday all down The Ridgeway. I was driving 9505, and there was 3 Geminis in front waiting to turn right down to Witton.

Then in Erdington, there was a collision between 2 lorries just off the island on the New Road, and nothing moved for around 10 minutes. A 966 was stuck on the island, and 4914 was also stuck

Saw 4005 about 19:20 going into Wolverhampton on a very late running 28

Really bad traffic on the Coventry Road (into city) this afternoon due to roadworks, caused 2 900s to run together both into and out of city, and the 957 I was on took 20 minutes to get from Sheldon to The Swan

The 2 into city that my 957 was following were 4900 and 4896. One of the two heading out of city was another branded Enviro400, I did not see the other, my mate said there was another one not far behind it (I wasn't paying attention!)

I was on board a 900 from Coventry at 14:20ish which used the outside lane to overtake a 900E and 957 while crawling along by "Solihull Heights". Thats the exclusive ::) flats built in the central reservation where the pub used to be between Sheldon and Yardley.
A 900 to Coventry and 900E passed by together in opposite direction.
I'd like to meet the idiot who gave permission to close a lane so that trees and vegetation could be pruned on a busy Saturday afternoon :o
