Care to shed light on this, anyone?

I suspect by the end of November. Some are probably still being built in Falkirk.

I'm think 23rd October to coincide with the timetable changes "Morning peak changes" and new 07:25 journey from Castle Vale on 904 service.

19 days for around 22 more buses to arrive, be  checked, branded. Really? Yes some may be in service by then but not all, and they wouldn't focus it around a route change anyway.

That was the photo i was referring to.

Cheers @Nathan I had a link sent to me last night with that Picture & another by the same guy on Flickr.
It is a great picture & there is a just as good one of 6796/7/8 on the main site now too

Castle Vale? The 904 does not currently go to Castle Vale, is it being extended?

Single Decks are going to be quite common then...

If it has to go under the same bridge as the 71 in Castle Vale, which is the only logical way I can think of, for getting the bus towards Minworth...

It could use a decker if it used Chester Road and Kingsbury Road as the current 71A does.

Re: 904 and Castle Vale - wouldn't surprise me if that was an error on TfWM's part (probably meant Minworth instead of Castle Vale), or it's just a new extra school journey added, nothing to get too excited about.

Was there a Scania on loan to PB yesterday?

If the main site is correct (and I have no doubt it isn't) and PB has no more red/white Omnilinks, then what did I see on the 46 around 1700 leaving City Centre? Too far to ID but I think it might've been BY's 1800?

It might have been 1819 as that was sighted be on loan a few days ago

Not sure if it's the same Scania I saw on Friday, 1816 was on 65 then.
