So 3 Tridents down at least on the 126 for WN today then, any ideas whether anyone will actually bother to follow through with a fine for the Spectra or does it have to be a repetitve thing/leeway given for weather conditions etc...

One of BC's unbranded Enviro 200s, so either 809 or 810 is on the 22/23 this morning!

813 on the 45 this morning
I thought this bus was meant to be at West Bromwich but seems to be at Birmingham Central

809 is out on the X64 and 810 is out on the usual 99, vinh1000 has mentioned 813 was on the 45 so it's probably another Enviro that's meant to be at WB ;)

Interesting. If it wasn't for the snow, I maybe could have ran to see which one it was. Will try and keep an eye out for its return journey

Hmmm, that is interesting. I was on 5503, sat on the wrong side to see the fleet number, but it was most definitely an unbranded E200 and it was most definitely on the 22 to Kitwell. I was surprised as it was hot on the heels of a 99 branded one, as it's unusual to see two 99s in a row. Strangely, there was another unbranded E200 behind these two heading down War Lane in Harborne 'Not in Service' - such buses are usually on their way to take up duties on the 22/23 so I'd assumed that maybe 809 and 810 were / were to be on unusual workings today. But if these 2 are on the X64 and 99 respectively then maybe the 2 I saw are other 'WB' ones.

I did receive a message this morning saying that 817 was supposed to be out on the 14E.  :o
