@Tony On the way to Chelmsley Wood via the 94 on Chelmsley Road there is a 311* mk2a metrobus parked up painted white with red on it I think in the car park of 1 of the buildings on the left after the school not sure if U R know what the fleet number is. I saw it properly yesterday on my way into Chelmsley Wood but only part of the reg plate unfortunately any ideas?  ???

I meant that lol. To be fair it has been nearly 6 years but never realised 3070 went as well, thought it was just 3091.
