Unusual Workings June 2013

[John]

2013 was on the 3 yesterday morning

I've never seen anything other than B7RLE on the 3.

That is mentioned because 2013 was seen on the 126 last night, so has been taken off the 3 and put on the 126 at some point yesterday

Oh, I misunderstood. Thanks John.

I don't think the 3 goes on very late into the evening, so probably just finished service there and went straight onto the 126.

NXWM Spectra, I think you find the 3 does run late night with the last bus being 23:51 from the castlecroft terminus.

However yes what you say is probably true that 2013 came straight off the 3 and onto a 126

West Bromwich run it on Sundays now as it does not go to Merry Hill any more, and the 53 does not run on Sundays for it to interwork in West Brom. It does run on an Sunday

The 289(E) runs hourly between West Bromwich & Rowley Regis Hospital during Sunday daytime

Oh that's what I expected it to be anyway; Do any company still operate Routemasters? Midland Classic? No?

Central Buses have one Routemaster used on special occasions.
