4054 was involved in some kind of incident yesterday at Bearwood (Would have been on an 11A) with several ambulances and policecars/policemen and paramedics surrounding the bus

4054 is a West Bromwich President Nathan so could be 4024 4034 4064 or 4074 you saw

Then it must have been on the 48 then as it said Not In Service on the blinds (Forgot the 48 went down there). 100% it was 4054

4054 has route 5 branding.

Ok it wasn't that then.Maybe 4064 on the outer circle? Anyway i wonder how serious the incident was to require dozens of police/ambulances

4054 has route 5 branding.

No, it hasn't. According to Tony's list, 4055 has the 5 branding. 4054 is a WB President but has no branding at all.

I think if it had been that serious we would have heard about it by now?

I wonder if it was a training exercise to test the response of the emergency services in case of a serious bus accident?

2118 replaced another B7 or Omnilink in Solihull this morning I seen it arriving into Solihull with an engineer at the wheel and then came into service working the 11:35 72 to Birmingham.

I think 4675 replaced 4653 on the 5 this morning saw the engineer bring 4675 from Garage and then a while later I seen the same engineer driving 4653 through the station not sure I presume they swapped at Poplar Road and when 4653 passed me it did sound a bit rough couldn't say what the problem was exactly but as I said 4653 didn't sound right.
