Any reason why have seen another 70 displaying  90 to Chelmsley Wood, this evening?  Is this to do with the programming of the blinds, just curious?

Rear display?


I was in the car but the front displayed 90 to C wood instead of 70 E and the side had 90 to C wood. Is that the driver more likely then?

I recall seeing a 590 at least a year after it was changed back to 90! Was hoping for a 161 to relive some memories!

No, know one has, so thanks!

Did BC need extra buses for the 70 changes after all?

The main one we are all stood in front of is WB 4290, the one in the right-hand corner is WN 4581

4218 was all masked up, it didn't look far off entering the spray booth

Isn't that the usual allocation ;)

I thought it was single decked of a night? Maybe not on Saturdays

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.

It's now single deckers on evenings Rob.

There's at least one B7 on there too though LS

How come 4315 transferred back to Central from Yardley Wood. Do they need an extra Trident with the 70 changes? Or is it to do with past rumors that were floating around?

Just a couple of questions about the 70 as I haven't had the time to try out the route yet. Does it take the same way as the 72 between Chelmsley Wood and Marston Green, via Berwicks Lane, or does it take Moorend Avenue with the 14? Does it serve Marston Green Station with the 72? Also, does it go into Solihull Station or does it terminate at the town centre?
