I've seen 94E's to Arran Way in Smiths Wood a few times, are these timetabled or?

There used to be a timetabled journey to Arran way in PM peak. Just looked at the 94 timetable, and it is not on there any more. If you have seen it recently, then it is untimetabled

A lot of buses are avoiding the city centre today due to the Bupa Half Marathon, every 9, 120, 126, 127, 128, 140 and 141 should terminate at Five Ways during the daytime today I think?

Matt the 126 - 4580 was using Colemore Row this morning not sure if it still is

Will be to do with the Birmingham Half Marathon, as Digbeth is closed. NWM says it is terminating at Moor Street Queensway. From 9am till 12.30pm this afternoon.

You do sometimes see 16Es to Hamstead Village at peak times.

@Matt, this tells you all diversions today

I've only ever seen it once in person, that's when it was in front of a regular 16 service! Then my other 'untimetabled' encounters are the 101E, which terminates at Grove Lane, it was only when there was too much traffic that the 101 came in groups of 4, in the City!

My second ones are the 24E which terminates at Four Dwellings, probabaly due to the delay? ??? They do usually turn up late during snowing season though, that's when some 24E services appear... Coincidental? I think not...

Just seen a 4H to West Bromwich leaving Halesowen, well about 17:25

I still see a 94E regularly. Always at the same time. Can't remember if it's just after 3pm or 4pm in the City Centre.

Another lesser seen 'E', although timetabled are the two late night 14E to Lawley Middleway

I know it's not an NX working, but saw a Diamond bus coming down Moor Street this evening displaying "16E Hockley". May well have happened before but looked so weird

Seen a Diamond bus with an E working before, but as you say it does look unusual.
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).
