It does seem weird doesn't it? I also watched that there were a lot of non hybrid buses on the 22/23 today so thats probably why if theyre at Wolves for training and someone mentioned one was at Hartstones having something done.

It does seem weird, have been in Harbourne several times this week, on Monday there were two Hybrids on the 24. I think that WN are only borrowing an Enviro Hybrid now as they have there own B5HLs.

Ash mentioned in another thread that one of BC's B5LHs has been at Great Bridge for maintenance today, 5501 does appear to have been off the road for a while, and as you say 5403 will most likely have been at PL again for type training. So there are Hybrids short on Saturdays lately. BC do seem to favour putting 2 or 3 on the 24 and they tend to be on there right through to the end of service. Peak only boards Mon-Fri on the 22/23 tend to be Tridents.

Reasonably unusual to be fair, although deckers do occasionally show up on the 48.

[ilovetea4370]

Fair enough, I've seen deckers on there before so wasn't too sure, never seen a Gemini though its normally ALX.

[NXWM Spectra]

Only one I've seen today is 4012 on WN28, most likely covering for a dead B6LE.

Rarest I've seen this year I think.
