Theyre good buses for it particularly on the 4H and M which are long routes

Thats a great spot-as you say never seen one of those on there before-is this route commercial or tendered and if commercial does it do well or not?

I think the 326 is a tendered service, I have seen cadets and the red and white darts on the service in the past, not sure what the loadings are like though.

Does anyone have any ideas what buses get used on the 226 these days to replace Y211/2HWJ as the 2 mpd's are still branded for the service.

Anything that is not with Plaxton Centro or Wright Eclipse bodies!

Would 30833 on the 326  been the journey off the 56 early morning. If soo then 30833 did an early morning 56 trip too.

Plaxton Centro spotted in Kidderminster Bus Station today. Not displaying a destination and in standard Diamond blue livery. I believe the registration began with B.

It will be BX07 and either KPP/BRV or AXO
