Untimetabled 'E' Workings

[vinh1000]

Are 141E Quinton (Church) timetabled?

No, there is only one late night timetabled 'E' working to Bearwood from Merry Hill Mon-Sat, last journey from Merry Hill

Which direction was it coming from?

Birmingham out

[:D]

Saw 71E to Castle Bromwich few days ago, and today I saw 17E going to Bordesley Circus (going in the direction of Birmingham after the circus) and 37E to Bullring markets.

A lot of Solihull routes can work 'E's to Bull Ring Markets. I have seen the 5, 6, 37 and 957s use this working before.

All of the Birmingham to Solihull routes (but not 70 or 72) may be able to use this short working if they need to

This is a usually working for Monday-Friday. Peak time short workings only go as far as the Merrivale

The Hagley Road has ground to a standstill due to a 4-way control, causing havoc with the 9, 120, 126, 140 & 141. Every bus is running late (to the point you can't tell which board it's on).

4814 left the city centre on a 141E to Halesowen at 11:35. My 9, 4828, was 25-30 minutes late, but was instructed to carry on without turning short anywhere.

The delay caused by the 4-way control is much longer than the layover most services have, so buses are going to keep getting later.

Was wondering why the 126 left 15-20 minutes late from Wolverhampton this morning

Also seen, a 33E to Perry Barr and a 3E to Haslucks Green Road. But unsure if that's a normal Sunday working.

Saw these too... 4844 was the 33E, and it was one of those Ex-PB toothpaste Enviros.

4844 started work on the 33E at Moor Street from 14:42

I saw that exact departure, by the Square Peg

Also just before then I saw 4539 on a 126E to Edgbaston, Five Ways.

The 3E on Sunday normally runs up as far as Robin Hood Island. They used to show 'Hall Green Tesco' as the destination, but I've seen lately on the evening peak shorts that it shows 'Hall Green' with the lower line alternating between 'Robin Hood Island' and 'Short Journey'. Don't know if it should be the same for Sundays too.
