1926 came to a halt in Stoney Lane with its backend partly blocking the road. It was this morning so should be alright now. 

Looks like 4539 has had an engine fire. 

6909 50 branded - 18

What's happened to 4507 has disappeared off bus times

The answers in the transfers section

Blimey, I assumed that one was long gone. Ex Walsall, Bilston Street, Hockley, Lea Hall and Cotteridge.

Other preservation topics:

Has Foden ROC300R been seen in the West Midlands since its renovation? I would have thought it ideal for the 50 anniversary at Wythall but haven't seen any photos of it there.

And I still wonder if I will live long enough to see 436KOV restored and running again :)

The Foden belongs to someone at the NWVT museum at Kirkby. It has never visited Wythall up to now. I rode on it at Kirkby and it sure motors well. 

Whats happened to 6927? Its says last tracked 6th April

Had an accident. 

Well assumingly the Black Country Garages will keep there Scania's at first WA and WB. WA need Scania's for some routes although I could imagine B7RLE's will move there to release the Scania's and WB might gain E200MMC's to replace it's Scania's as for the Early Envrio's WA, WB and maybe WN or PN could have them. WA could do with them depending on the Hydrogens to try and make the City Routes Double Decker plus maybe the 10, 6 which has a mixture and 7 Double Decker 10 always seems busy when I've caught it. Apart from that PB will loose E400's that are younger that could go to WA, WB could use them to replace the Gemini's and WN the Tridents it has left or maybe they go to AG or YW to replace Tridents there that aren't Euro 6 as WN's Tridents are Euro 6 and WB's Gemini's apart from 4506-4523/25 I think and 4679 aren't Euro 6

YW is going fully electric with the double deck fleet

Not really a fault but the offside of 4753 looks badly in need of a coat of paint.

I take it 6111 which was on loan to Walsall has returned back to it's own garage.

Out on the 72 so yes. 

I've just seen that video too on the small heath highway driver not in proper lane. X1 looked to be driving quite quick, think the car looked worse off

The bus driver was within the speed limit and has been cleared of any blame. Amazing that he kept the bus under control.

9 branded Platinum driver training by Halesowen bus station yesterday, possibly 6920.

Apparently 4733 had an arson attack yesterday as well

Out today so it couldn't have been too bad. 

4258 seen in Walsall

Saw 6600 driving down the Bristol Road in Longbridge this morning

Sorry, I know this is a bit random, but what does ALF stand for?

Way off topic its Alien life form
