An electric was out and about on Handsworth Wood road this morning circa 08:30. Assume this was for driver familiarisation. No fleet branding or fleet number so unable to ID.
Most likely E165 or E170.

7000 appears to be stuck tracking to Hamstead Road near the terminus

Followed 6996 this morning belching out blue smoke. Appears to have been on 16's all day though.

The 16 has been done too. Now displays ‘via Handsworth Wood’ as well as ‘via Hockley’

7513 on 16's this morning. Back from repair.

Back on the road, 6995 was on 16's earlier today

7509 - Maddison Isla

7513 - Hetty Betty

7517 - Joanne Louise

6998 - Stephanie Marie
6999 - Angeline May

7504 - Eve Cathrine

7504 out on the 16 this morning

A few of the 16 branded ones I spotted today

6996 - Varshana Ralh
6997 - Ella-Rose

7000 Macey-Marie
7500 Beckie-Leann

I've been for a ride on both 7000 and 7500 today; very nice indeed.

No 'next stop' announcements as yet and wondered if there is a 'go live' date?

Also, I couldn't get the Wi-Fi to work - but that may be just me....

6997 out this evening too

Many thank ! 😊

Two from today:

6994 - Dorothy
6995 - Clara Betsy  ( 16 Branded )

Does anyone have any names for buses 6951 onwards?

I have a few of the newest batch, but only what I have gleaned from the photo's on here and Facebook;

6970 - Ria
6971 - Tara
6972 - Amy Elizabeth

6976 - Harmony Grace

4809 has been de branded too.
