How come the BC Hybrids don't have 22/23 on them? All other branded buses have the route numbers on them as far as I'm aware.
Local Routes: 002, 39/39A, X21, 46, 76.
Localish Routes: 18, 23, X22.

Some of them are harborne branded so technically branded for routes such as 22,23,24,29

They are 'corridor' branded, as opposed to route branded, same as for the Pershore Road and Soho Road.
My locals:
2 - Birmingham to Maypole | 3 - Birmingham to Yardley Wood
11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath

Shouldn't all the Hybrids be branded in that respect as they are all meant for the Harborne corridor ?

The Pershore branded buses have 45/47 on them though, as the Soho buses have 74 and 79 on them

"Most Likely", how do you know there will be 100 Standard E400 MMC?
If thats just a guess, why try to guess the exact number of new buses and what types NX will be getting?
Local Routes
94/95, 11A/11C, 28.

NXWM annoy me when they order the leather seat Envrio400MMC's it means that the routes they upgraded in 2015 they upgrade again. Can't they order Wright Products, Volvo, Normal Spec MMC's and Hybrids even Optare or Scania it gets annoying renumbering and upgrading
