Birmingham Central Garage

I'm flying out from Birmingham Aiport on Sunday afternoon, and returning a week later, at approx 1am Monday morning.

I'm curious to know why there are 900A journeys between City Centre and Coventry via the Airport during the night, but no return journeys during that time?

I just find it bizarre that to get back home to South Yardley from the airport, I have to get a 97A to Birmingham city centre, and then get the 900A!

You are obviously really unlucky to have a flight that just misses the 00:54 from the Airport to Yardley

The 966A also had only inbound journeys to the Airport (on Sunday mornings)

I'm lucky that I'm travelling with my parents, and they have booked a taxi to take them back to Oldbury, so I'll just hitch a ride with them to the Swan  ;)

Thanks, I will really appreciate a 40 minute walk from Stechford to South Yardley in the middle of the night  ;D

Response of the year. Thanks Tony, that's made my day!  :D

5515 I think on the 29 done a 29E to Northfield about 11:40 this morning saw on Priory Queensway while waiting for the 72 to go home, I am aware that this is a regular thing but to me worth posting in the garage thread as opposed to the NW thread

Occasional Tridents on the 22/23 aren't that unusual but today 4157, 4617 and 4633 are all on there, along with B7RLE 2136. Certainly not your usual allocations.

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