   sorry to be a nuisance  but which service(s) are the majority of the 67 reg BC based
   platinum's currently working on please? presumably the 22/23? but not sure where from?. Lower bull st maybe?  thanks
   
67 plates are have been bought for the Harbornes, so yes - the 22/23, but also includes the 24 & 29. However, a few of these have been spotted on the already existing Platinum routes (X1/X2/X61), which are usually allocated to 66 plates and vice versa.

The Harbornes enter city via Great Charles Street Queensway, Livery Street, before terminating/starting from Steelhouse Lane, near the Police headquarters (Lloyd House). They leave city via Priory Queensway, Moor Street Queensway, Smallbrook Queensway, Suffolk Street Queensway before returning to the original route out of city via Broad Street.

Which would now mean it's on the X12.

There's one on the 37 with the bar under the destination painted in red. That probably narrows it down a bit.
