Yes 4001 has appeared on it a couple of times lately. Spectras quite regularly appear, whereas Tridents are a lot more unusual.
The 82 is one of the few WN routes which hasn't seen a Hybrid yet ;D

Yes, several B5s, not too sure about an E400H though.
Hybrids have so far been reported on the 1, 3, 4, 25, 27, 27A, 32 or 33 (can't remember which but obviously no real difference), 59, 79, 126, 255, 256E (one trip, didn't make it to Stourbridge) and 529.
That just leaves the 2, 5, 6, 10, 11, 25A, 26/A, 28, 62/A, 81, 82, full 256 and 257! So quite a few actually.

we all said that about an E200 appearing on the 9, would love it to happen, but very unlikely, then suddenly 824 takes up on a 9 board mid afternoon and stays on there till late, so never say never. ;)

I've had 5415 on the 3 on a night, and my dad had a B5 on the 5 a few months back on a sunday. He was somewhat perplexed when it pulled away in silent mode...
Sorry but a B5 can't go onto a 5 on a sunday because it interworks with the 10 which can only use B7RLE's
The 529 was infact the first route other than the 1 to have a hybrid operate it and it started tge day on the 1 then did a trip on the 529 (Think it was 5513) and this was before B5's appeared on the 59!
5413/5 have both done the 529 along with branded 5515.
Most of the routes listed for having hybrids usually occur due to a replacement breakdown during the evening except the 59
Anyway back to the 82 Tbh a tridrnt hasn't appeared for a bit. 4001 was on there on Saturday.
Caught 4538 on the 82 in January/February and 4608 on there on Christmas Eve last year.

Indeed dud gen it was a Monday night after the speedway sorry.
Why must the 10 be a single decker? No low bridges on that route, Arriva use Tridents and in the good old days of the 510 it was Metrobuses/Tridents/Spectra's
The only bridge is Compton on the dismantled Wombourne Line, and that fits deckers and artics.
Or is there another reason? the climb up Holloway Bank to Church Road?
I thought that at first why they can only use strictly B7RLE's but found out its due to the B7RLE's being the only buses fitted with the transponders that activate the Perton bus way.
That Rare working went unoticed by everybody on here so thanks for sharing that with us :)
