Perry Barr Garage

@Tony when is the pb running the 55 on Sundays going to come into effect

[Jack]

I saw that but  cant see why interwork with 94 unless it saving a few buses

That is why services interwork... to save using more vehicles!

I saw a staff bus at 03:15 this morning, driving around the bend from Auckland Drive to Windward Way in Smith's Wood. I've not seen a bus go around there since the 99 service was withdrawn at the start of the 2000s.

(I'm guessing it's a Perry Barr one as I'm led to believe BC doesn't have single deckers?)

BC do have some of the white E200MMCs based there, which get used on their staff buses. You usually end up seeing one in the city centre.

They only have 1. 767, which is found on Garage - Priory Queensway Staff Shuttle.

Ah right, I've just had a look through Flickr though, and 765/766 have been on there in the past. 8356 has too, but that's since left the fleet.

The other E200 MMC that were at BC went to NEAT I believe. The staff shuttle has also seen 2137 which at one point was the regular bus before it transferred out last year. And the odd Platinum & Tridents in the past might have been on there I think.
Perry Barr also have a Priory Queensway - Garage staff shuttle as well, but that uses the normal service fleet I think.

seen 767 at clock garage this morning

The bus I saw were crimson coloured, and I've seen a Perry Barr staff bus sat on Auckland Drive around that time of the morning before. It just intrigued me the route it took, as I hadn't seen a bus go around there in years.
