Unusual Workings - April 2013

[John]

*7019 on the 1 (Acocks Green)

I'm pretty sure the 1 is single decker on Sunday, as I also saw 2099 on it.

4306 was on the X51 as well. They interwork in Birmingham

Tridents are usual on the 126, and 957.

feel free to agree or disagree  ;D
* means I don't know whether they are unusual .. sorry  :-X

14/04/13:
4297 on the 83 (already been mentioned)
*7019 on the 1 (Acocks Green)
*4135 on the 126 (only because I saw a faint 'Walsall Road' livery on it)
4306 on the 935A

*1636 on the 4 (Coventry)
*1868 on the 4 (Coventry)
*1865 on the 7 (Coventry)

*4614 on the 957 (only because I saw a faint 'Pershore Road' livery on it)
1700 on the 127
4762 on the 35
2079 on the 141
4513 on the 83/89 (I think it has been already mentioned)

  :D been a busy day!

The 1 regularly gets every type of bus at AG

4135 is treated like any other Trident at WN so appears often on the 126

B7RLEs on the 141 were regular a short time ago, although I hadn't seen one for a while now

thanks :D

And the Merc on the 1 though. :(

[Trident 4609]

There was a big variety on the 1 today! 3 Spectras, A merc , A trident (Might of been a couple), then B5's and Enviro 400H

Five different vehicle types on one route at the same time? That's got to be a record

[Trident 4609]

Well see if we can get a trident,Spectra, Excel,B6, Merc, B7RLE, B5 and E400H on the 59 one
Day   ;) ;D  ;)

Well we're likely to get five one day; e.g some Tridents and Spectras, then a spare B5 and spare E400H and a single decker on the peak running board

You can never be sure what turns up on the 59 peak running board. Sometimes they can't run it if they are doing School services in an afternoon and may not have spare buses. When they do have spare buses you can get anything on it like 601 this afternoon

Could happen though

[Trident 4609]

It will be interesting to see if that happens ;) But you Know WN garage it probably will happen!

[nitromatt1]

Other than Bordesley which can never get unusual workings (only one type of bus!), Pensnett has to be the most boring garage for unusual workings! Either that or BC.

For example I have never seen a Merc or B6 on the 9 except when a WB Merc appeared on Boxing Day. They hardly ever put B7RLEs on these days either!
