I saw a Gemini on the 33 (poss. 4477). Seen as I was leaving City around 19:15. Not sure if according to the spreadsheet it's noteworthy or not, but I certainly looked twice!

There's a few evening peak ones that run as 33E to garage from a day on the 94 so they'll usually be a Gemini

It wasn't a 33E, I can't remember if it was 33 Birmingham or 33 Pheasey, but it definately wasn't a 33E.

Yeah, it was 4477. I saw it around 18:25-ish in Kingstanding. It was nice to see it on the 33!

Surprised how many people acturely got on 1870 on the Hobs Moat Road mistaking it for a 17 and thinking it was going to the City Centre with a driver advising them to stay on to the Fox And Goose and catch the 94

There were 4 people on 1870. Interesting to hear that @John would of thought people would acturely look at the destination display to see whether it is acturely going to the City Centre before they board a bus to Scott Arms. I wander if they looked at the shape of the bus instead of the destination display. Must be a regular thing then.

I had 4299 and people would have a quick glance see it didn't have led destination and look away only to jump up at the last minute!

But to acturely board the 28 thinking it was a 17? 1870 has a LED destination. @BU07 LGO

@Squiz1971 a Enviro 400 dose the 21:15 from the City Centre quite often. I agree it is mainly Gemini operated with some Enviro 400's in the evenings.

The 21:15 journey is just on a normal 94 running board, very rarely an Enviro
