Don't see what it can be changed to, it says on the NWM site that it's becoming a one way loop but that's what it already does.
The bus stop on the Walsall road at the top of Booths Farm Road doesn't have the 52A displayed on it atm suggesting it actually goes another way maybe along Foden Road back to Beeches Road, but I've seen a few coming along the Walsall road towards Tower Hill instead

52a was turning around at Turnberry road meaning 10 min frequency both ways on Beeches Rd, but assuming Turnberry must be to tight with the parked cars so reason for change.

Can someone explain what this picture is all about?

I presume it ended the journey as an Omnilink!
Don't you start.

IIRC - It wasn't in service at the time and that particular display was only for the photo? Wasn't it 4779 that was on loan to AG, a while back? I recall someone, I presume Tony, mentioning a DD Scania on the 11A.
Check out my photos on Flickr & Instagram

The 71 dose not pass under a low bridge at The Radleys follows the same route as the 70 around there and that uses Tridents. @broma1k

Correct @2206 it was on a shuttle from Solihull to the World Resort at the NEC. That display is just for the camera

?? Not unusual in the slightest
They are becoming quite unusual on the 94 now quite rare to get one on there usually fully Gemini.

I do agree with what you say about the Geminis, but it is still not unusual for an ALX400 to be on there too. There was 3 on there yesterday

Very rarely on there before the 52 started. What I have noticed is since the 952 converted to the 52 there have been 1 or, 2 but, with the Scania's now arriving at PB for the 52 the 94 is being converted back to fully Gemini seems to be usualy fully Gemini now anyway. @John

There's a s/d currently on the 914, (one of the 70xx's I think), being followed by either 4487 or 4489 on the 904.  Both were heading towards Sutton around 1/2 hour ago.

@nxwmbusfan1999

Sounds like it could be one of the AM extras off a School service. Usually an ALX400
