4781 on 67?

Yes, it was on 67. I was on that bus today.

I was wondering whether it was unusual?

I'm not entirely sure, these OmniCity buses usually go on the 902/4/5/7 and used to be on 934 before it got changed (that's as far as I can remember from the top of my head).

The OmniCity buses usually end up on the 907 these days before 4733-4737 went to Walsall the omnicity's were on the Sutton Lines with the geminis on the 907 but this seems to have been switched around.

1838 - 16 - Looked unusual seeing the Toothpaste ominilink working the 16, last time I seen that was when it was branded for the 16

Omnilinks are NOT unusual on the 16. ALX400s, Geminis, Trident-Enviros, Omnilinks and Omnicities are all common allocations

B7RLE on WN59, think it was 2067.

OmniCltys are not seen on the 16 too often any more. They are mainly on the 907s now

They were mainly on the 934/A before they transferred to WA

My dad just told me he saw an Enviro400 on the 241 this afternoon and thinks it was 4815

Yes, but a time before that they only used to appear mainly on the 16. They also used to be regulars on the 115. Then as you said Nathan, the 934/A before the route went to Walsall, now they are mainly on the 907s

4815 was having some day today, first on the 9 then onto the 246 & then onto the 241?
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

Can confirm it was 4815 on the 140/241 as just rode it on the last 241 of the day to Dudley then the 23:45 140E to Blackheath. Nice thrashy driver as well. Love it when they put an Enviro on the 241

living just off the route I beg to differ, only seen one single decker on there recently
Now in exile in Oxfordshire....

Really? Whenever I'm on the 16's route I often see an Omnilink. I'd have posted 1838 myself if I thought it was unusual

Tridents seem to be appearing quite a bit recently on the 1. Same also with the 22/3
