4192 doesn't have fleetnumber on drivers side
4436 has an older bar on top deck like the Y reg tridents

A wn trident I think it was 4321 has travel west midlands logo on its staircase window

4753 on 75

120 service, I notice it seems to be mainly double deck operated lately has there been a change for operational needs.

Still has b7's on it

Saw 4865 in west Bromwich bus station, saw a b7 with route 728?

As I see it, Platinum doesn't have to be restricted to express or limited-stop services, but if it is to be expanded across the Black Country, I can see it being rolled out to what people would consider 'key' link routes between Black Country towns/areas.

For example, while I'm not that familiar with the 529 route, it could be seen as a 'key' bus link between Walsall and Wolverhampton. And likewise, the 4 could be seen also as a 'key' link, moving people between Walsall, West Bromwich, Oldbury and Blackheath (as well as onto Halesowen/Merry Hill).

I could also see the 126 being considered for the Platinum concept, being as it links Wolverhampton, Dudley, Oldbury (to an extent) and Birmingham.

However I'm not sure though whether Platinum could/would be rolled out to single-deck routes, as I believe that would leave NX with a surplus of single-deck vehicles that do not yet need to be withdrawn, not while there are so many older double-decks that need to be dealt with.

Isn't the 9 a key route? Can't see that going platinum

Why are tridents noteworthy on the 120 there only on there every day

They're not noteworthy on 120 i see them on it more then the volvos
