2128 is sat out of service on Weoley Castle Square with police cars by it. Any idea what's happened?

24 gets them on a regular basis too. The Harborne corridor seems a right mixed bag nowadays. With Hybrids, E400's & Tridents appearing across the 22/3/4/9

Nathan is right. They're not route specific branded plus you can argue the 29 qualifies as a Harborne route as it passes through there. According to the spreadsheet, B5s appear occasionally on the route.

They aren't branded for the 22/3. They are generic Harbone branded.

@MasterPlan Birmingham Central run a few journeys on the 9 in the morning peak.

Yes the 24 was the 103 and before that the 3. I am surprised too, I thought they may have extended some 24s to the new asda on Barnes hill to provide a link to Quinton.

There was a 30 service (certainly during the late 80s to mid 90s at least) which was a positioning route: Quinton Garage, Ridgacre Road, West Boulevard, Barnes Hill, Shenley Lane, Bell Lane, Northfield
Limited service, journeys mainly at peak times utilising buses coming on/off the 29 route at Northfield.

Yes there was another 30 service, I think it was a school service for Hillcrest Girls school for people living in Quinton as there was a bus stop on the dual carriageway opposite Barnes Hill (Towards Quinton Road West). My sister used to catch it and I think it became a 103 in Quinton.

Was that in Harborne? If so, that 30 went from Quinton to the QE Hospital. It changed to become the 636 in the late 90s and now is the 99.

99 to Bartley Green then with full sized singles
Pensnett can have the E200s and a QE to Halesowen route
Job done :D
(Edit: in all seriousness, I just made that up on the spot and kinda think it's a good idea)

As for the X64 it didnt use the QE hospital originally, so could go back to Bournbrook, after all the 98 and 99 provide a link to QE to City.

My immediate thought was that the 'main' part of Selly Oak will now only be served by the 63? How on earth has it even come to this?!?!
I hope that the x64 may be rerouted and serve the Bristol Road again, as I still don't know why this is claseed as a limited stop - as it's no quicker than the current 61/63 once it has gone via the QE!
Hopefully some sense will prevail - and someone quickly realises that just having the 63 serving the Bristol Road on this section is absurd.

The 61/3 don't go to Harborne or Wesley Castle and the 29 helps connect these areas to Frankley.
