4908 on the 24 towards city diverted from Harborne Rd via Chad Rd, Hagley Rd and Five Ways underpass through to Broad St this morning.

Not sure whether this was part of a wider diversion (didn't see any other Harborne buses go this way) or if it was a single bus off piste.

Standard diversion between 08:00 & 09:30 for all Harborne services this week due to road works at the junction of Harborne Road/Highfield Road causing severe delays, Last friday journeys were taking over an hour longer than they should

Ah I see. Yes I got caught up in it last week, was very late for work twice. Since then I've taken a different route to work.

BC buses have all PB services programmed into them. A few other things as well if you know where to look...

Perry Barr buses also have Pensnett route 9 programmed in as well

Makes sense as its programmed onto BC buses. BC run a couple of journeys in the mornings.

Just curious do PB run journeys on the 70 like the NXWM website indicates ?

Seen 900 branded Enviro in Coventry with maroon advert on back with jet plane between decks. Couldn't get number, think it was 48xx. Is this the only one done. Apologies if this is old news.

One thing Daimler Mercedes Benz are good at is producing excellent Diesel engines, I do miss the sound of the 0405n for all its faults you couldn't knock that 12 litre engine.
