Would it be better to start them on a Sunday or Monday with a big launch or something they are the first hybrids in the black country.

None spare at peak times then, so the odd Trident/Spectra should still appear

Personally loving the idea that the 1 will have all brand spanking new buses..... except for one random old spectra still plodding along in amongst

I'm hoping we get to see one sneaking onto the 529 occasionally, would be very interesting seeing green in walsall!

Or the 256, not very likely I know, but would love to see one in Stourbridge...

If they're anything like the Birmingham hybrids, they'll stay on the route they're meant for and that's that  :(

JB93,

Don't forget the B'ham Hybrids are used on the 24 & have also been seen on the 97 on occasions, so not totally beyond the relms........

Tony's most recent photo of 5507 shows it on the 97: http://wmbusphotos.com/NXWM/5001-9959/5507.html

Birmingham Hybrids dont really stay on there routes though do they as Winston has pointed out the 24 is always seeing them, and for a while last year they were daily on the afternoon 97.

Plus judging by the amount of off route 6 branded b7rles that have been sighted lately, Wolves dont like keeping buses on there intended routes :P

That's true but the 24 can kind of be lumped in with the 22 and 23 to be honest - it's the Harborne corridor. But they surely aren't used on the 97 that often. I lived on that route for years, ever since the Hybrids first arrived, and caught it pretty much every day, and have never once seen a hybrid on there apart from in Tony's photo.
