Where will presidents be allocated then?

18, 76 would be safe bets

49 & 76 interwork on Sundays, so all 76 are Scania today

Ok thanks @Tony wasn't aware of this so that's why I put it in here rather than the NW thread, just in case it wasn't noteworthy

4391 was today's 84, presumably a side effect of the 49 going Scania.

What is the reason for the 49 being run by Scanias? Does anyone know?

Edit: I've found the diversion but can't seem to find any low bridges that'd mean using a Scania?

Diversions by Shirley Station meaning going under the bridge on Haslucks Green Road.

Which bridge?

You're right, if I read that diversion route correctly, it doesn't go under any bridges? Unless that diversion route is wrong?

[Ronnoc]

I think they meant the bridge on Colebrook road, but the diversion via Colebrook road seems to start on the 8th of October.

There were at least 2 Tridents/B7s on the 50 today too so maybe the 50 Branded Enviro on the 84 had a fault this morning and was swapped. Otherwise, the allocator has had an off day!! Things like this make sometimes make me wish I drove for NXWM with the fleet variety as at First it is very rare to get a bus other than that usually allocated to the running board. Seems to happen much more with NXWM.

There were no B7s on the 50 today. YW don't have any. They would have been Tridents.

3 Tridents noted, 4383, 4386 and 4572.

A rare event tomorrow, 3225 is coming out on a job where it hadn't even been requested!

It is being used on a private hire just because it is available without the hirer requesting it!

4576 currently on 2/3
4577 on the 18

before anyone asks

[Demonstrator4698]

will 4698 remain on the 35 for the rest of today or will it make an appearance on the 18 ?
