Is that the first hybrid ever to be on the 98? Very unusual

In fact has any decker ever done that route?

No, don't think one has. It would of been unsuitable because of the low trees wouldn't it? Ones been on the X64 tough.
So is it possible to get a decker through the route in Edgbaston now, were the low trees are?

There was a photo of it a while back. I had it saved on my computer but I can't seem to find it now..

Even if it weren't, deckers has appeared on the 98, albeit E journeys. See here:

I drive down Wheeleys Road most days and the trees are really mature and quite low. I wasn't aware of them having been cut back, but couldn't be sure. You'd have to be careful taking a decker along there if they hadn't been. Very rare working indeed.
