some trampy chav has urinated on 4102 upstairs at the back with his friend next to him letting it happen!
might want to clean that up when it gets back to the garage.

Probably the one I caught to work this morning, think it was 2218, it was 37 branded.


Also, this evening I noted 2236 operating off-route on the 37, but what was more interesting was that it already appears to have a faulty front destination display.  :(

What time was 2218 in Acocks Green @Stu
The destination display was like that when I saw it on a 11E about 2 weeks ago

It was a couple of minutes late, but would have been the 0817 departure from Acocks Green village towards city.

Been like it since it entered service. Had on the 72 the other day, could barely make out the route number.

4510 AG37 usually E200MMCS

Not really noteworthy @RS , as Geminis are also used throughout the week, but surprising for a Sunday really, with the reduced numbers of buses required, one might expect all E200s on Sunday now.

The Jaguar 37s don't run on Sunday so, in my opinion fairly Noteworthy for a Sunday. @Stu

That may be your opinion, but as I've seen Geminis on the 37 on Sundays most weeks now, I personally don't consider it noteworthy.  ;)
