Quote from: Westy on August 16, 2024, 06:59:05 AMAt 7am of a morning, is there supposed to be more than 3 number 9's tracking?

The 645am from Walsall isnt showing, and that's the one my sister wants!

Except that 2072 appears to be in the garage rather than in service on the 0945 to Wolverhampton.

As noted by @Wba_lad 763 on the 79 that would have been fun this morning with College and Schools going back the 79 I usually get is usually greeted on arrival into Wolverhampton by a large waiting crowd as to are the next two or three buses. I didn't need to get it today thankfully

I understand a car pulled out in front of it whilst it had right of way in the bus lane on Willenhall Road.

I heard a couple of drivers discussing it on Tuesday.

BlackCountryBusSpotter

Oh looks like it happened at the Deans Road maybe Neachles Road junction I looked afterwards didn't realise the date. Some Drivers shouldn't have licence, a Double Decker bus should be a pretty hard to thing to miss pulling in front of obviously not for some people.

There aren't any 72* or 73* fleet numbers, what type of vehicle was it?
My locals:

11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath
