Looks exactly like King Edward's School, Edgbaston, to me.

I saw 4777 this morning heading on the A51(?) to Amazon Rugeley! Any information on it?!?

Perry Barr run a duplicate on the Amazons (services run on contract for Amazon, to their Distribution Centre in Rugeley), so that would be why you saw it

As do WA and WN. It has been previously discussed in other parts of the forum but i believe Arriva didn't have enough drivers so NX now run trips.

Thandi appear to run a shuttle to Amazon too.

I'm actually REALLY chuffed with how this turned out... ;) :)

What's going on with the bendibuses? Why is there always so few out when there's more than enough of them to cover. Take Monday for example, 4 out of 8 diagrams were bendis and even the extra peak ones were doubles......

No school services this week, so more deckers available

There still seems a few off the road, dumped at the back of the garage where they have been for a while. The peak extras will be double decks anyway (it does a 33 and 28E Dyas-Short Heath before going onto the 67)

6028; 6029; 6030; 6031 have been performing reliably for the last couple of weeks, 6025 is the only other one to venture out for a day, but I suspect none will be out now until 2nd January

Thanks for the info but is this the norm now anyway for a lot of them not to be used? And if so, why?

They are not usually used on Saturday allocations, as there are enough spare deckers to cover the 67

Thanx and sorry to be a little persistent on this one but my point is they have 11 of them for sole use on the 67 so why are they not using them to their full potential???
