Possibly due to the bus fire on the Stratford Rd. I imagine the traffic around there while the road was closed would have been terrible

Was it a President displaying that? Passed one displaying that on my way home in Tyseley about 6pm, but the Stratford Road was already open again by then.

It was a President but didn't get the number as it was overtaking a 1E I was trying to board in the middle of the road, because stand was obstructed by 30.

@Matt That's a surprise to me, didn't think Colley Gate would be on the display?

The Stag is a Sizzling pub, the Toby Carvery is the former Holly Bush. Lots of 9Es to Holly Bush Hagley Road West in the days of Quinton garage but I've not known one terminate there for years.

How times have changed! I'm sure the Stag did used to be a Toby Carvery, at least it was the last (and only!) time I ate there!  :D
