@WN 5408 has been on the 82 before so not a first for a 1 branded.. Covered last trip of the day sometime last year to replace a Spectra.

Nathan must have a brilliant memory. I did a quick search and here it is - http://wmbusphotos.com/forum/index.php?topic=1928.msg143612#msg143612

Mentioned it in the noteworthys @Chris

2019 on late night 5/10 last night

Why am I mentioning this?

Noteworthy as in that I was right in saying it was a transponder bus, I did think I was wrong. Out of all the transponder B7's, this is the one that's been used on the 10 only twice since it had one fitted. All the others have had more turns.

Forgot to mention, Codsall Clipper Branded 2059 was on the late 5/10's the Saturday before. The 5 brandeds don't have transponders to activate the Perton Bus Road barrier, so i assume it got stuck....

2019 used to be allocated to the 10 quite a bit when they were new, but since 2069/70/71 were branded they mainly on there. I know recently the same few non branded b7s seem to appear on the 5 bus that interworks at night, such as 2022/23/64/67. on a Saturday usually a 10 branded bus is allocated to the first 5 bus as that is the late night one. however I believe yesterday one on there at least was swapped.

however the barrier has been out of action for a few weeks. although there has been what looks like a temporary camera fitted to a lamppost. personally the council should put cameras up, and do away with that barrier, as its a pain in the backside.
