I wouldn't rule it out, Welsh House Farm Road is closed during the daytime for the next couple of weeks:

I'd sooner have an E200 anyway 😂😂

Noticed the X1 and X2 Platinums now have vinyls on advertising contactless payment.

You can track every 99? @Tony I think @Trident 4194 has gained access to the software that tracks the buses  :o

Where is the best place to report potholes on the road? The Quinton Road has been absolutely shocking for a while but it seems to be getting even worse and I feel like there's going to be an accident on that road if it's not sorted.

Any in Birmingham should be reported at Birmingham.gov.uk/potholes

Check other council's websites outside Birmingham

4457 came up Newport Road and the Chester Road passing Spitfire Island and the JLR in Castle Vale at about 15:00 today, being driven by an engineer. Unusual to see any BC bus round there.

If anyone is interested, 802 is currently doing the final 99 journey from Birmingham (21:15 from Priory Queensway). Then it'll do the final 99 from Halesowen (22:30 departure).

It's nice to know which bus did the last departures on the 99. It's a shame because that's the end of the era for the 99 & 636.

6854 is on the 60 today.
Is that usual and do BC use there spare platinums on the 60? As i've seen quite a few on there recently.
