I'm pretty sure that it was a replacement for one of the Citaros, as I saw them both in Meriden this morning, one had the rear bumper missing, so must have been replaced by this

What does this bus usually cover

I think it does the National Grid contract Mon-Fri

Yes, in Leamington Spa. I was thinking that was the only place I would get to see 30923. Good job I saw it in Solihull!!

30823 Royale Centro on Route 26A in wolverhampton this morning. Always usually Darts or solos.

Probably due to a number of Royale Centro's being freed up since the cancellation of the 4M service on a Sunday which used to use cadets and the centro's.

Did any evening & Sunday 4's go onto other Walsall work, because now the evening & Sunday 4's have gone, how are the buses working into Walsall or are the buses running dead into Walsall now?

(Would this eventually affect the Centro contract work, if it's not profitable to run dead from Smethwick or whereever the garage is?)

is the national grid shuttle really that busy as there was a solo on it, seems a shock to go from a solo to a full size Volvo! But really nice to see a wright eclipse with the black on the front, works really well in contrast to the white body!

It may be more a case of what the NG contract stipulates

All the new b7rle's and one older one (57 reg) on the 4 today along with mostly cadets and a few red and white darts. Just seen the 3 diamond and 3 NXWM 4's all stuck together heading for West Bromwich and 2 diamond darts one standing room only and about 3 omnilinks together heading for Walsall, and would think it's been caused by the bradford place stop changes.

30826 on the 40 (with a non working rear blind).

30207 on the 255 this evening - is this unusual?

The bus for the 255 might come off the 4M at Merry Hill the one that gets in Merry Hill for 19:25, but not sure what time the 255 leaves Merry Hill for that to happen, if so cadets would be regular on the service, i remember about about 2 years ago a 404E used to finish in West Bromwich travel to Wolverhampton empty and start the 256 that was in the time of the mcv evolutions.
