Are we using the same notion for when one appears on the 2/3 or 35? Or when a E400 appears on the 6 or 50 because i'm sure that would be spammed.

Euro 6 Decker on a Euro 6 Decker route.

As a regular user of the 2 and 3, I already know that Omnilinks are the 'allocated' types during the week, but it is also not uncommon to have any spare double decks being utilised, especially at the weekends.

The whole point of the 'noteworthy workings' was for people to spot vehicle types that weren't normally allocated to particular routes.

By your logic, there is no such thing as a noteworthy working now, so maybe we should just give the whole thing up.

The difference is what is 'normally' used as opposed to what 'can' be used.

Maybe as you have asked him and other members before to lend you hand managing the workings due to you having a job they could update it for you. 

Unless Tony or anyone else who work for NX comments otherwise if that Veichle isn't usually seen on the route and it doesn't interwork with a school board then it's Noteworthy that's what I consider it to be and I believe it should be.

Anyone noticed there have been tons of platinums and electrics on normally predominantly trident routes today? I think only 3 tridents and 2 enviro400s have driven today so far, will this continue?

It's Sunday, you use the best buses

@Tony are the 2 and 3 not stopping on Camp Hill (Ravenhurst Street) out of city?

Waited a while for a 3E (Wake Green) which just sailed past in the middle lane although I was waving my arm.

Then about twenty minutes later a 2 overtook a 5 which was slowing down to stop. (At this point I just got on the 5, at least I got home eventually!)

I think tomorrow evening I'm just going to walk down to Stoney Lane and try and pick up a bus from there!

Couldn't you walk to the next stop on Camp Hill (Old Camp Hill) stop and try there?

We've just lost our last 53 plate trident. Wonder how long the others have left.
