Anyone know what the freshly painted e400 on harborne corridor. Must say it looked amazing with no adverts.

There is no freshly painted E400 on Harbornes

I can only presume you saw 4872 which was painted exactly a year ago

I would presume that it would be 4875 as that was in the paintshop recently.

Or perhaps not...

So it's been at least 2 plus months now how are the new Bristol Rd services working now. Are the 63s overcrowded as predicted. I've seen a few comments on social media about the x61 being unrealiable, anyone use them, drive them or have any views. Just curious.

Does anybody know why the 29S serves Somerford Road, as opposed to Gregory Avenue like the 29?
Local Routes: 002, 39/39A, X21, 46, 76.

As it's for school kids and only starts at Shenley Academy, would there be much demand for travel just 2 or 3 stops up Gregory Avenue? I'd imagine most would be travelling beyond Worley Castle Square.

Will the 14 be rebranded as some of its buses are in for/ have been repainted ?

But the website says it serves a similar amount of stops along Somerford Road. The only reason I can think of is It​ goes closer to Princethorpe School that way.
