11E to Yardley Yew Tree (11C). Which was a little inconvenient, as I was waiting at Yardley Yew Tree! (about 6:25pm) Luckily for me, there was an 11E to Acocks Green just behind, not so lucky for the fella who asked the driver if he was going to Kings Heath as I got off at Mansfield Road!
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

The Yew Tree one was probably running dead to either Kings Heath or Selly Oak which is funny lol.

Couple of 9E from Stourbridge to bearwood.

Do they carry on dead to brum or turn around somewhere near bearwood and return?

I saw one of the 330x 9E finishing at Hagley Road, Portland Road
Probably turned around by Five Ways or where the 8A/C used to go

Saw an 8E on the clockwise direction at Saltley Gate this afternoon for Jewellery Qtr. Haven't seen that particular one for a long time!

CL

4240 on a 46E to... Perry Barr Bus Garage.

Must be the only E journey programmed that actually goes further than its orgiinal terminating point! 😂

Some WN drivers turn at Lordswood Road. If you're at the 11A stop at Bearwood/Hagley Road, you can turn the bus around in one manoeuvre. I've done this plenty of times too, particularly when the 1 route was on diversion around College Road meaning I'd have to come back to depot via Highgate Road.

Anyway, seen 126 drivers who have done this, spoke to a few aswell, so maybe PE drivers do it too.
