That's the first time I've seen an E200 be reported on the 14, except those early morning short workings to Tile Cross.

I already reported 2097 on the 222. Also isn't that the B7RLE that does the 45/47 then goes onto the 61/63? B7RLEs do also seem to be appearing more frequently on the 24.

Sorry didn't see your post :) I just posted all the thing i wrote down in one go and i never looked at my unread posts :)

Did seem a little early for the B7RLE journeys as it was about 13:50-13:55 and i think it came off another journey so was already on before i saw it

I saw it on the 3 yesterday morning also.

This evening, I saw 4745 on the 6 in Sparkbrook heading out of city, not that unusual anymore, but noted it looked much needed, as it was totally packed!  :D

4746 was also arriving in Acocks Green on the 3 just as I got to my house just now.

Guess the extra Enviro400s arriving at Yardley Wood mean we might see more of them on other services now.
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

48** - PB67

I think it was 4856, as it does do 'strange appearances' on obscure routes. I don't really think a E400 on the 67 is rare, but, i don't really see one, especially on the newer ones!

Trident 4609

There was a trident (418*) on the 22 in Bartley Green few days ago. Not highley unusual but i just remembered i saw it

Also a 453* Gemini (I'm useless with fleetnumbers today but i did spot it from a distance) (Aboard 4585 on the 126) on the 42 today

Trident 4609

Also an Omnilink (Ex Coventry) (Once again never wrote down fleetnumber) on the 67 this afternoon. Don't really pay attention to the 67 so i am unsure how common/unusual it is so if someone could tell me that would be great :)

The un-branded 48**s are usually on the Sutton Lines when not on the 33, one or two on there most days, for the time being. It is unusual to see one of these Enviro400s on the 67, usually a 47** when one is on the 67, but with the 47**s leaving Perry Barr, not for much longer
