Local artist. Forget his name but me best friend got me one of his pictures for Christmas last year. Love it!

There's one e400 for the 50 with advertising, then underneath saying" if you believe that"

@2206 129 no longer operated by WB.

@Chris The Gemini routes are as above but the 87 may still be worth a look.

Here's a possible round trip for you which should see you catch plenty of Geminis:

From Stourbridge, get to Bearwood.
Get the 11A to Harborne (mix of Presidents and Geminis)
From Harborne get the 22/23 into city (Gemini 2 hybrids)
From city, get the 94 all the way to Chelmsley Wood
From Chelmsley Wood, get the 966 to Solihull
From Solihull get the 5 to Shirley, then change onto the 31 to Acocks Green
From Acocks Green get the 1 to Five Ways
From Five Ways get the 22/23 back to Harborne
From Harborne get the 11C back to Bearwood
Alternatively just get the 11C from Acocks Green to Bearwood
;)
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

@Chris

4528 on WA8/89 if of interest. 0723 89 from Wolvertrampton. Am I right in saying this is the last Gemini at Walsall?
