Unusual Workings June 2013

PE 510 on route 276

That came off the 243/244 - 276 workings are on some 243 running boards in the evening so B6s can often appear

I would argue the 276 isnt a route which deserves B6LE's mind! Is it still mainly B7RLE's on a Sunday?

Yes it should be, although 1573 was on a daytime 276 yesterday

There may well be something unusual on the 222 today, as there are currently 2 x branded E200's parked up in Pensnett garage, one being 825

[nitromatt1]

4806 is on the 140/241 today, should be on the 16:15 241 from Dudley therefore the 17:00 from Halesowen, then the 17:38 140 from Dudley if anyone wants a ride

and 2079 is on the 9.

4719 has been on the 33 all day

Sorry got the timings wrong, it's actually on the 16:38 140 from Dudley and therefore the 17:45 241. Was basing it on the fact that it repeats every 3 hours on a Sunday but then realised it repeats every 2 hours Mon-Sat due to reduced layover.

Matt, what happens with the 241 at night and on a Sunday, does it sit at halesowen for 35 minutes?

Yup! In at about 41, out at 15, so over half an hour layover

2063 - 529

4332 - 302

[nitromatt1]

After looking at the 140 and 241 timetables on the Network West Midlands website, 4806 being on both the 08:05 departure and 16:05 departure of the 241 from Halesowen doesn't make sense! Very confused...

813 on the 121 just left dudley. John

[Trident 4609]

4680 on the 301
4681 on the 302
4332 on the 302

2063 on the 529!

Was heading out of Birmingham at 11am this morning and 4806 was at Bearwood on its way into City

So unless the running board does something unusual (isn't the 09:23 from Dudley & 10:05 from Halesowen covered by WB), i reckon 4806 should have been on its way into Birmingham at 08:05 this morning.

It was in Halesowen on the 241 at 08:05 this morning though! That's what's confusing me

[Stuharris 6360]

so if it was in Halesowen at 08:05, then i think it worked the following,

08:05 Halesowen to Dudley arr 08:32 (241)
08:38 Dudley to City arr 09:27 (140)
09:35 City to Dudley arr 10:22 (140) not really in time to make 10:23 241,

therefore i think it makes

10:38 Dudley to City Centre arr 11:27 which puts it on course to be at Halesowen for 16:05.
