Branded vehicles are now irrelevant, soon there may be no branding at all.

Yeah I understand that, bur while it's still around wouldn't jt be best to keep it at its routed garage, you know some passengers aren't the brightest and even some people can genuinely get confused by jt especially when you get a 4 branded vehicle on Blackheath, Oldbury and west beom routes where the 4 goes.

WB used to operate the 4 anyway, It is isn't to uncommon to WB's 3 route so they could get either to Blackheath regardless of the branding

We had this same discussion when 1860 was on loan to WB for almost a year recently It didn't matter then and it doesn't matter now if people don't actually look at what's on the front of the bus it's no problem but their own if they board the wrong vehicle.

Not sure if I've seen it mentioned, but 6805 is back on the road at West Bromwich.

Just seen it heading into Birmingham City Centre on the 80.

Question for Tony as he can only really answer it,  if the 09 plates ENVIRO 400s had stayed where would they have been transferred to,  just out of curiosity.
