Or just dont mention WN hybrids in the unusual workings thread if it involves route 59 79 or 529, when one gets on the 28 or something then you can go wow

...except a hybrid on the 79 or 529 is very unusual

That wasn't the point i was making! I was refering to previous comments about hybrid buses on the 79 saying the first ever hybrid bus on the 79 (5510) actually came of a 59 board.

Tony, Trust me i know hybrids are not unusual on the 59
They are on 7 days a week and catch them every day.

But 6013 put Hybrids are not unusually on 59 (bad English I know) but correct fact and Matt put Really?!?!?! ::) underneath. There was no need for that when the fact was correct

Well i can't control what matt says can i tony. Can we leave it now as i don't want a heated discussion.

Yes what 6013 said was true but as i said i didn't say hybrids on the 59 are unusual so why did 6013 put that if i never said it was unusual?

There was no need to state an obvious (and pretty random in the conversation) fact

Ashley, Hybrids are unusual on the 529 and 79 and infact any WN route other than routes 1 and 59

I like the question you asked him Stu! Can't wait for the reply  ;)

Of course, if this is someone else's picture, please feel free to let me know. If my memory of Dudley bus station serves me correctly (which is where this picture looks to have been taken), although the bus shows Wolverhampton as the destination, it actually appears to be parked at the Birmingham-bound stop there.

I was thinking that as well. Maybe it was an E journey from Wolverhampton, and is unloading here and about to head back to Wolverhampton.

It may have just done a 126E Wolves-Dudley and the driver may have just changed the display to go back to Wolverhampton.

Also I reckon that it is photo as he made clear that he "took it himself", whereas when he nicks other people's he doesn't say anything

Just about to say that. It probably did a shortened working to Dudley then the driver changed the destination.
