57/58 branded red diamond bus 30850 on First 146 departure 9:50am

Did it have a programmed display, as 30854 didn't.

The same red you see with the 30854 image above
Though the driver said the engine had a ECU failure and the bus dashboard said STOP immediately

30828 on the 4, its unusual to see the centro's on the 4 on weekdays but makes a nice change.

The MCV evolution and enviro 200 are on the 4 most days. If not then there either on the 40/42 or 43.

Older Eclipse B7RLE, think 30832, on the 4 today

That does not seem unusual, the 2 Eclipses in service seem to be regulars on the 4

Oh thanks, I just hadn't seen one before. To be honest, the 4 seems to get anything at Tividale!

Well, if I see one of the 002-branded Centros on there, I will certainly post that as unusual ;)

Well, 16 branded MCV's made it onto the 50 and 56, and 404E ones also made it onto the 301 and 16 so you never know

A double o 2 centro has made an appearance when the service was the 404E before same with the nifty fifty centro's but it's very rare to see them off route.
