Just remembered one more from today, 4738 on the 2

Saw that while we were on Moor Street yesterday but i didn't think it was unusual.

Which YW Routes (Apart from the 50) have Enviro 400's sometimes?

Last time I was in Moor Street I saw one on the 2, 3 and 6. They also used to appear on the 35 but don't any more

There was one on the 35 yesterday.
My locals:
2 - Birmingham to Maypole | 3 - Birmingham to Yardley Wood
11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath

The 18 and 49 does occasionally get them as well. They do sometimes appear on the 35 as well too.

Would you know if they the many allocation for the 18 on Sundays?

There aren't enough branded Geminis to cover the 82/87, so 53/54 reg Geminis and the odd ALX 400 are also used

I dont understand why some Mercs are making their way on to the 276 on Sundays right now. I see theres 1 or 2 on the 243/244 above but why not just keep the 276 all B7RLE on a Sunday, arguably one of PE's main routes.

What I understand even less is why the 246 is every 20 minutes with Enviro400s on a Sunday, whilst the 140/241 is every hour with B7RLEs

I think the 241/140 are sponsored

5413 on the 59!

First ever E400H on the 59. Two branded buses on the 59 today

Saw that at wolverhampton earlier but my phone had died
