966E Chelmsley Wood

[Trident 4609]

Saw a 42** ALX400 bodied B7TL (too far away to ID fleet number) leave Birmingham CIT Centre at 15:00 on a 7E to Witton Square. Untimetabled I presume?

Villa are playing at home, might be some sort of matchday extra, or adjusted because of extra traffic.

I think extras are put on on Saturdays as 7Es to Witton.

I had to run as a 33E to the Circle this afternoon, running 20 mins late

There will have been loads of them today.  A combination of a broken down car at Paradise Circus and emergency roadworks at spaghetti junction managed to screw most of the city up

Well he did pull out late due to being looked at by an engineer so he departed later than he was supposed to

I have found myself the last 3 mornings working the 08.11 33 from City as an 'E' to Kingstanding Circle, as it is impossible to get into Birmingham on time with rush hour traffic on Kingstanding/Aldridge Road to Perry Barr making me at least 10 minutes late getting into City (Usually around 8.21am)

Here's a pic I took yesterday morning having a few minutes break before starting off back to City

Two leaving Colmore Row about 1410 / 1415 this afternoon.

Firstly BC 4623 operating 24E Punch Bowl, Court Oak Road. The bus had been parked up for about 10 minutes with no signs of a driver. He then came back with 2 inspectors.

WB 4701 82E Ladywood Spring Hill

Almost forgot. 997E to Perry Barr Wellhead Lane early afternoon, into City direction

That 82E must of been very late to only run to Spring Hill, mind you I did see some bunching on the 82/87 between 13:00 and 13:30

1876 has just done a 66E to Erdington, from City, and gone dead back down towards Six Ways.

I can't understand why they do that, surely it would be better to send the bus to Merry Hill empty to take up it next working.

There was a 28E to Bagot Arms this evening (From Erdington direction). 28s running late all over the place
