Noteworthy Workings November 2013

Am I right in saying the 76 is a mix of both tridents/presidents ? or is it just Tridents now

Solid Tridents

I wasn't to sure, last time I seen the 76 it had a mix of tridents and Presidents

[Sayeed]

I wasn't to sure, last time I seen the 76 it had a mix of tridents and Presidents

I work in Kings Heath since September, haven't seen president for about a month.

Apologies for the lack of fleetnumbers, it was dark and I was more interested in my phone at the time...
- Eclipse on the 935 this evening - wasn't the one that becomes the X56, or if it was it was possibly an hour late.
- Omnilink on a Cannock X51, late (again) and rammed full to the brim (again)

4475 having a day back on the 33, along with 4247 (One may be the board that also does the 94)

Intriguing... I saw 4249 on the 33 this evening, saw it coming down Corporation st towards me and assumed it was the one ex 94 just running to Perry Barr and back to the garage, but turned out it was a  full 33 to Pheasey. So that possibly makes 3 running boards without E400s, very strange if you ask me.

There was an Eclipse on the 935 at around 11.15 today, seen passing the Square Peg. Wasn't sure if this was unusual or not.

There is one board that is meant to be Eclipse, because it goes onto the X56 in the evening and apparently has to be single decker, no idea what timings are on it though

[Trident 4609]

2010 on WN59 (Replaced a defective Spectra)
2020 on WN79
4004 on WN 255
4008 on WN1

B7RLEs aren't really unusual on the 59, nor are Spectras on the 255. Good spot with 4008 though Nath!

Well i class Spectras on the 255 as unusual as it is mainly trident. I don't even know why i posted 2010 on the 59 (Probably posted without thinking so will edit the post now)

I didn't just spot 4008 on the 1, I rode it ;)

I thought that was on the 934/6 not the 935?

[Trident 4609]

Also Today

Also 4766 on a slightly unusual working of the 301

I would as they don't appear on there all the time :) There must have been two Tridents on the 957 today as I seen 4616 aswell :)

Also 4766 on a slightly unusual working of the 301

Judging by how often they are reported there seems to be a Trident on the 900 or 957 every couple of days or so.

4897 (900 branded) has been on the 59 today, this could've led to an unbranded E400 which would've been on the 957 instead being on the 900, and therefore 4617 ending up on the 957

4617 was a replacement for a run-in E400.

As was 4150 for a 55xx on the Harborne.

4909 was also on the 24 this afternoon, so that's one 957 branded one short.

There goes my long-winded theory then!
