Yesterday I saw an 11 branded Gemini pass me on PB7 near Newtown Swimming Baths and it went down Newbury Rd following the 8A route. Any idea why it did?

Probably being adjusted cross city

A rather radiant 4525 & 4638 on the 31 today, looking very fresh might I say. 4525 hasn't got the yellow sticker on the back like other Crimsons have including 4638.

Photographed 71/72 branded 2236 in Coventry Pool Meadow earlier with an engineer at the wheel. Any idea what is was doing there?

As has been stated before Thursday is the day MOTs are done in Coventry for Acocks Green. A crimson Gemini came over last Thursday.

Is it MOT time already for these? That's gone quickly.

NX don't wait for MoTs to expire before redoing them. This batch have been having MoTs for a couple of months now to make sure the dates are spread throughout the year so they don't all have to be taken off the road at the same time

We are seeing more and more crimson buses in Coventry none seen on 900 yet if BC repaints get underway shouldn't be too long.

What crimson buses work into Coventry?

4642 still has the old 2015 'Welcome On Board' sign on the cab door with the old ticket prices

2206 · February 21, 2016, 03:59:25 PM

Crimson 4652 is on the 11A today.

2206 · February 23, 2016, 07:16:52 PM

Noticed today that the front 2 seats on the right of 4071s upper deck have the TWM moquette.
Those two seats also have grey seat backs instead of the usual blue seat backs.

What was 4656 doing roaming around All Saints Road in Kings Heath around 15 minutes ago?

2206 · February 25, 2016, 04:09:04 PM

4652 is on the 11C today.
4067 (I think) is doing a 11E to the Dudley Road while on a 11A - passeed the Fox And Goose at about 15:50
