Has 2101 actually worked the PN 19 today? Or is this a glitch on Bus Times?

Which part of the route means the service can't have longer or DD vehicles?

I think Welsh House Farm/Rilstone Road area.
When it was at BC they used to use B7RLEs on there a lot though I remember.

They used to miss out the estate if it was B7's and I'm sure that was the case when Omnilinks made appearances on the 636.

If I remember correctly, one of the former PN 61xx E400MMCs did a trial run around the route a few years ago but I don't think a DD has over operated on the route in service.

Not NX, but VIP apparently ran a decker on the Halesowen to QE bit when it was the 99, looking on past posts on here

I saw 6920 a short while ago. While the front of the bus has had its branding removed, the rear hasn't. 

A real shame the 9s are being de-branded. They looked smart and really stood out, which is what branding is all about. PN were also pretty good at generally keeping the 9 and X10 buses on their correct routes.

I will miss the 9 and X10 brand definitely they really suit the platinum mmc well and they did well for 6 years

6920 now fully de-branded today, and with the red price branding patches partially covering the mess left behind from removing the old vinyls.
