Not sure what has happened but 4685 just came past me on the X51 heading for Birmingham but was on the West Bromwich Road heading towards Joseph Leckie basically on the 4 line of route. The bus was in service as there were quite a few passengers on board is it a diversion or has the driver got lost.

RTA Birmingham Road 4.00-600

51/X51 diverted between Boundary Hotel and The Bell

via Boradway North, West Bromwich Road, Walstead Road Right Birmingham Road (The Bell)

[Ashley 4569]

Are/were the 51/X51 route following the same route as WB5 as far as the A34 traffic lights?

[lynx1103]

No Walstaed Road

45 Route then come out The Bell

Oh, ok

4195 on the 9. Came from Birmingham showing Birmingham on the display and pulled up by Quinton church so presumably running a 9E.

Was on the 246 at lunchtime

If 4195 was opersting a 9E to Quinton Church this is a peak afternoon board. On schooldays does 829 St. Paul's School then round trip 9E Quinton Church to pick up the 1723 or 1738 140 to Dudley.

They really need to be careful to avoid doing stuff like that, if there's any other bus available for christ's sake use that instead

[Liverpool Street]

5510 - 126 (I think. Was a hybrid)

Just went on July thread, it needs to be closed that topic.

Rode it on the 1 earlier but could be. Havn't seen 5512 today either so could be that. Can't be 5511/3/4 as they are still on the 59 this evening

5512 on 126, on the 22:03 out of Dudley towards Wolverhampton. Does that fit with when you saw the hybrid, Liverpool Street?

Pensnett was a mess today, with at least 3 Tridents (4195/7/8) on the 9, at least 2 B7s (2088/91) on the 246, 4193 on the X96 and 4823 on the 120. 4813 was also on the 276 earlier but then got moved back where it belongs, on the 9.

Meanwhile, Toothpaste Enviro 4735 was on the 40/41, probably the first time one's been into Wolverhampton Bus Station.
