6851 in service on the X61

Only 600 miles on the clock. Bus was set up really good. Not as sluggish as others. Managed to out drag a 49XX off the lights while running back dead! 💀

6846 on X1 being passed by 6710 on 60 stating "on diversion enquire with driver".
6846 also returns to the streets of Coventry!

I thought buses in East Brum were looking tatty but that was some advert I saw on the 14 with the neon flashing  pacco Rabane  logo. Sorry if already been mentioned. Nearly made me swerve in the car lol.

A few small LED's are not quite Neon! 😝 I was only thinking earlier how nice and subtle the advert looked. Just a shame that all wrap around vinyls make buses look extremely cheap and tatty. But they must work and be cost effective for advertisers that so many of them get produced.

Considering the fact that you can go from Great Charles St to Broad St now, is it fair to say that the 22/23/24/29 will not be returning to Colemore Row? I get the feeling that this diversion will become a permanent part of the route. Especially as it serves Moor Street & New Street now.
Local Routes: 002, 39/39A, X21, 46, 76.
Localish Routes: 18, 23, X22.
