Theres a couple of hills in that section too, not exactly steep but hills a hill :P That road is pretty bad the speedbumps don't help things either.

I wonder how a Liberator will survive Warstock road if it ever goes on it, I was in a car, it almost fell apart going on that road.

Had 1407 today - excellent bus for its age. Doesn't rattle much and rides well on most road surfaces. I had 1916 on the 27 a few weeks ago when riding over Highters Heath Lane - actually coped well with the road - rattled a bit but smoothed out the ride.

It looks like we had 4872 on loan from Walsall today. Brought in garage after AM peak

1406 is really excellent in driving, but when the driver opens the door, some kind of farting noise that scares the living daylight out of me.

Perry Barr had 4269 on loan today on the 16 today. I don't think it is a transfer because it was parked out the front of the garage this evening like it was waiting to be taken back to West Brom

4943 is on the 16.

Along with 4948

I got photos of both, and 1816 on the 7 today, all appearing on the main site in around an hour

Wouldn't it make sense for BY to just transfer 1836 to pb as they seem to have plenty of spare buses whilst PB have a shortage!
Also why do pb only borrow bc's 14 plate enviros and not the unbranded 13 plate ones? And they don't seem to borrow wb or any other depots enviros regularly?
