B10L now finished AT Perry Barr after
16 and a half years at PB.

With a Brief gap March 2009-November 2009
When all left for Acocks Green and returned November 2009
For service 68.

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.  :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( Will really miss riding on them on 27/28/71. They're really great buses, love them. Oh well... I can go on WA routes that are operated by B10s.

I still manage to get B10L's alot of the time with the 69 passing near my house. Caught 1430 a few weeks back on the 69 i think on the first day out at WA after transferring from PB.

I saw 1430 passing when I was on 1421 on the 39 heading to Walsall yesterday. Missed the opportunity to ride on 1430, bah.

That was the very first thing I noticed on 1430, the LED display. Looked different (maybe unusual) compared to others having the manual blinds.

There have been 14 different versions of Sorry not in service, hence the latest ones having a little 14 in the corner, presumably one of the two you saw hasn't been updated

4719 pulled up at the Calder Drive stop in Sutton Coldfield today showing "Sorry not in service" (Couldn't tell which version !  :D).  About six employees got off it, and at least one guy pulled out a pocket camera and started taking multiple photos of it from both the front and the rear !!  It was there for three or four minutes.

Any idea what that was all about?

In passing, I hope they got a shot of the fact that the bus's rear overhangs and partially blocks the brand new pelican-style cycle crossing recently put in there.  :o     Why the City Council planners put it so close to the bus stop, goodness only knows - accident waiting to happen there, I feel .......  :-\

Maybe that was the point of the guy taking photos, to send to the council to show why the crossing should be moved

When was the 67A withdrawn from service ?
