Most of the X12s have been done
I saw one still carrying its X12 branding in Solihull earlier. Might be 6709.

@2206, are the E200's really noteworthy on the 5? Not really and you'll probably see the Omnilinks transferring straying onto other routes, 4, 72/73 etc.

Which of course you will put as noteworthy...

Seems to be a higher presence of E200 MMC's on the 72, as saw quite a few. And saw 1804 as well.
Probably related to more single decks being at AG now.

Theres at least one E200 MMC on the 17 today as well which I expect is the new 'normal'.

E200MMC's will probably be on until the 4 is fully single decker operated

is 1792 on 4A noteworthy?

@bbs As mentioned earlier in this thread, AG have more single decks now. With E200MMCs being used on the 17, I'd imagine Scanias turning up on the 4/4A will be a fairly common occurance. I guess time will tell though if it's considered noteworthy, it's still early days right now.

Any views/comments are my own and do not reflect those of my employer.

I'd imagine they will be common on other routes too like the 72 and 73 and probably the 5 etc. Not forgetting the 4/4A have been seeing more deckers lately for social distancing I'd imagine more will be on the 72 being more frequent than the 4's.

1805 is on the 58 as well. First day excitement from me I'll take no notice from now on ha ha!!

I'm sure Tony will correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you'll find both the 4/4A and 17 will see a mix of E200s and OmniLinks.

My locals:
2 - Birmingham to Maypole | 3 - Birmingham to Yardley Wood
11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath
