18:27, Birmingham Moor Street to Smethwick Galton Bridge, WM, 153375* + 170632

*genuinely, the best WM 153 I've been on

Why? It's Manky. I caught it on the 1429 from Spring Road to Moor Street and it is the same as the others two I have travelled in today on the 0651 HNF-BHM and 1612 BHM-HNF

Trident 4194

1894- days of these tatty Scania at Walsall must be limited now

23:46, NXWM, 48, Haborne, Swimming Baths to home, 4263.
Still slightly perplexes me that the short 48s don't at least serve Harborne High St. Nice journey, the ALX400/B7s have served my local routes very well for the past 10-15 years, they helped fill the void that the Metrobuses left, they will be missed when they're withdrawn - at least by me

4273, NXWM, 12E, Colmore Row to home. A trip down memory lane, you forget how bumpy these ALX400s can be on the upper saloon, guess it's a case of "use them while you can", as they'll be withdrawn before I know it

What was used on the 934 before 1844-1847 were bought for the 934? Was it B10's? The 34 went eventually in 2008.

PB2938

From Early 2002 service 34 used Plaxton president's former Sutton lines.

From 2003 34 used Volvo Geminis then scanias 1844-1847 took over January 2008 with the 934 extension to Foley Arms.
