Saw 423* terminate at Kingstanding on a 5E yesterday at around 18:45 (not sure if it was the late running dodger which is supposed to depart Kingstanding at 18:27), followed by another 42** on a 5E to New Oscott.

Don't think it was in service but in solihull this evening i saw an e200 mmc displaying "58e Woodcock Lane Nth". I suppose this could happen if the A45 or Clay Lane was blocked. Or is the destination just a remnant of AG's long departed 44 route?

6813 terminated short at Falcon Lodge at around 17:05 on a short X4 from Birmingham due to being 30 minutes late.

BC 2124 left Priory Queensway 08:10 as a 98E to Five Ways
Not really sure why it ran at all, just behind the usual short to the QE and the next bus on full route was already there waiting
Also not sure where it would finish it's route, because the outbound route doesn't stop near Five Ways

Aware it stops there, but that's hardly a "Five Ways" stop

I know, but you said you didn't know where it finishes. The station round the corner is called Five Ways Staiton and i'm sure its included in the NWM map of Five Ways as well, though I know its not really Five Ways.

Probably going as far as Hawthorn Road as no buses were using Dyas Road this morning. That will be the nearest E destination and the most suitable to use as they don't have Hawthorn Road as an E destination
