How are B10Ls actually getting onto the X51? It's a 20 minute service at most and 10 mins at peaks is it not?

shhh... dont say it too loud they might find out
I'd imagine its just the extra peak workings they appeared on

Surely WB E200s on the 45, 46 and 47/47A can't be too rare if the buses were bought for those routes...  ::)

They were actually intended for services 46 and 47/A at WB, not sure why they're being used on the 45

Just to be sure, tridents on evening 935A's are common aren't they. As well as enviros on 6/997 boards? If not then 4136 was on 935A tonight with 4776 on the 6 and 997

Wouldn't know a thing about 935A but from what I'm aware, the evening 6/997 is almost always 997 Envrios from the day time.

Possibly related to the fact that there was an Excel on the 26/A today.

Some early morning and evening 45/46s will interwork. The normal daytime service doesn't.

They must also interwork during Sundays, as the layover times on both routes in West Bromwich are quite large

If I'm not mistaken the sundays are still Mercs? Only going on the only time I've seen a 46 yet since the new Enviro 200s came in was on sunday in hamstead and it was a merc then
