Are there not enough Platinums to cover the Sutton lines and X14?
The 907 seems to mainly be Platinums now the Omnicitys vanished from it...

29 buses for 30 boards on both routes. But with Platinums on the 907 as well, no there is not enough

I didn't realise, seems to be a common trend at the moment, not having enough type of bus for a certain route
Class 153, 155 and 156. The Super Sprinters
"Around the corner" routes: 21, 89
Local routes: 12/A, 48/A
Semi-local routes: 54, 80, 87

Most used routes in bold

There's plenty of Platinums for the Suttons if they weren't being allocated to other boards

OmniCitys are not noteworthy on the 46 as they are allocated exactly the same as Geminis now they are not on the 907. So they appear on any non Platinum decker route, possibly except the 101

I think I have missed something recently. Is there a reason why they aren't used on the 907 anymore? Has it been rerouted and the Scanias are too high?

Driver complaints I heard. Don't know how true that is though

I've seen a photo of a few branded PB Platinums with additional letting  on the upper deck window.

It reads "COMING SOON, X3 to Lichfield", and then the 30 minute frequency below. 6809 is in the forefront, along with two others, at least.
Check out my photos on Flickr & Instagram

Yes, there is. But to catch two of them side by side both in service would be quite something!
