Seen 2171 on Foleshill Road on the 20 earlier with national express West Midlands branding on its front bumper. Any idea why this is ?

All branded buses have NX branding on the front bumper (Most if not all NX buses have the NXlogo on the front bumper)

He might mean with an NXWM logo rather than an NXC one. No idea why 2171 would have one though

Cheers John :) I'm under the weather today so I didn't read the post properly :( ;) 

So has the branding on the front bumper been removed and a NXWM logo has been applied in its place?

Yes that's what I meant, sorry for any confusion, on looking at the picture the green branding has gone and a national express West Midlands logo put on.

I would imagine because 2171 was sent to Birmingham for repairs after it's accident, they had no nxc logos so they just put an nxwm logo on the new bumper? I know it was off the road last month following a collision

A driver told me they don't meet regulations (I don't know which ones....ideas anyone?)
They are already being reprogrammed with larger ultimate destinations.
Short workings e.g. Wyken 10E,
Stoke Aldermoor 16
Cardinal Wiseman 8S are large and have no via points.

On VOSA yesterday there are some service changes to commence 20 July:
16/A and 21 = route and timetable.
5, 7, 18/A/19, 20/A/E and 27A = timetable.

Of course these are likely to be just Summer timetables but the two route amendments might be linked to each other, take note the following is just me guessing:
Service 16A in the Keresley direction runs Cox St and Fairfax St allowing it and service 16 to stop at Fairfax St stand DG - much closer to Pool Meadow. The completed Trinity Street works allows service 21 in the Willenhall direction to revert to previous route via White St.

4839 failed yet again today!!
