Also is there any chance of potential platinum sightings on 55?

I would guess the chance is the same as on any other non-Platinum DD route at BC.

Allocations tomorrow will produce anything spare at BC as the transfers in won't be there.

Similarly the 17 is planned for E200MMCs tomorrow, but Scanias after that

It will be any of 2201-2231. It is a one off and the garage won't be able to park the unbranded ones anywhere special to make them accessible

Looks like 55 will be going through kings hurst now and not diverting like previously stated.

Lost interest in Bordesley completly in 2010 when the 68A 68C 66 left and the mercs.

Think last Mercs left in 2012. As I went on them on the 54, 55 and later the 55A when they were at BY.

The Ominlinks that have been used on the 54, 55 and 55A over the years are also nice buses in my opinion.

The 0405N's left in 2012. I agree I use to ride the Benz and Omnilinks on the 54/55 and always enjoyed them on those routes.

It will be lovely to see double deckers on the 55 tomorrow on the washwood heath corridor now making it fully double decker

[Gareth]

As someone who have lived their life on the 55 route, it'll be nice to have double deckers back. Can't remember the last time we had one, but it would have been the last time BC operated BY Boxing Day services. 2010 or maybe even 2011. Just a little bit of a shame they'll no longer carry Metrobus or Fleetline badges!

Now all the Scanias have moved out, apart from 1802, there should be some different vehicles moving in tonight
