Unusual Workings - April 2013

[nitromatt1]

I think Omnilinks are usual on the 46 but i could be wrong

No you're right, I got it mixed up with the WB46, sorry!

[mranon]

I thought nothing of it when i saw it, i thought it was just covering for the usual Leopard on one of those services

i think its on loan to cover their slf/tiger

Would 4737 101 be classed as rare?

(venturing into parts I haven't been to for a while so sorry if these are not unusual)
4008 - 27A
4504 - 49

[Sh4318]

4504 - 49

Doubles aren't uncommon on the 49, there's usually 1 or 2 a day

[Kevin]

4553 - 2 (usually b7rle)
1902 - 69 (don't recall seeing omnilinks on it in Walsall)
598 - 81 (usually mercs?)
2067 - 25, granted there is no usual type on this route, just seems strange actually putting a new bus on it

The 24 is only allocated 3/4 hybrids a day and the rest being tridents. Apart from Sunday when the 24 is fully hybrid

Ok i don't go to birmingham like i have said on here so i didn't know exactly how many were on the 24.

I wonder why three tridents were on the 22 then?

Doesn't explain why there were at least 3 tridents on the 22/23

Probably not, but this is the usual allocation as far as I know, as the hybrids were originally purchased for 22/23 routes, it wasn't until a few months into their lives that they started veering onto the 24

Please could some one give some info on this one?

Comming Back on my previous post as I've had no reply how come a Coastal liner Bus is on the 878 operated by Select Bus services?
Has this bus transferred operators
Been on loan?
wrong blinds set?
just for a joke???

Any info thanks!

I think that this bus was sold to Select late last year, and they haven't repainted it yet.

Cheers for that appreciated  :)
