Word on the street is the 29 will be going back to deckers. Big changes rumoured for November - maybe the singles are for the 25 & 26...

You're teasing us there Andrew. I'm guessing revised / replacement versions of the 99 (part of) and 98 respectively, if they happen. 29 going DD would presumably mean another sizeable vehicle reallocation.

On the subject of extra B7RLEs, 2124 and 2136 are on the 99 and 24 respectively this morning.

@Mike K i take it 98 is rumoured curtailed between QE and Rubery, 99 between QE to Halesowen or merry hill then?

I've no idea what's rumoured to be happening other than the suggested changes on here to the 99 (QE to Merry Hill) and a possible replacement for the section of the route between city, QE and possibly Harborne or Quinton (Andrew Lee has mentioned a route 25 a couple of times?). The rest is just a wild guess from me. I know nothing of any possible changes to the 98.

813 parked up on priory queensway waiting to go on to 99 in replace of 2139 is this a loan

15th November guna bring some interesting changes, suppose its waiting game now

Assuming 2120 will complete the set, that's a healthy wedge of 37 B7RLEs BC has now to cover the 29/A, 58/59 and 98. No idea what the combined PVRs of that lot is, but I'm sure it can't be that high.

I've assumed 2120 is coming over to BC - is 2115 still at AG, and where will that one be heading? (if it hasn't already left).

2115/16 still AG? would of thought they would go to WN to join 2112/13/14?

2116 seems to have come to BC, it was on the 24 all day yesterday. Which seem to be a commonplace for some of them at the moment, I find.

Update: (16:02)
Just passed 813. Like mentioned, on the 99 - however it's running within 2 minutes of 807, at the moment in Harborne; Talk about reliability! ::)

PB 764 is also out the 99

813 has been on loan to BC before. I think it was January 2013 and I remember seeing it on the 45 in the snow.

It was new to BC in January 2013 and was not a loan

Ok thanks @2206 .  :)

Interesting... Couple of the locals must be thinking "has these buses shrunk?" Haha! Mind you, SWB E200s, despite the minimal capacity for a "popular" ( ::) ) route, it must do wonders around Worlds End! ;)

@clayderman probably more nifty at the tight bits!
