Noteworthy Workings November 2013

[Stuharris 6360]

There was a Merc on the 241 in Blackheath heading to Halesowen around 4:15

Fleet number 1657

Wonder if it made it onto the 140?

Was on a late card so should still be out unless it's been replaced.

That's the board that comes out mid afternoon and stays out all night, it will do the 21:30 from Birmingham, 22:15 241 from Dudley, 23:15 from Halesowen, 23:45 140E to Blackheath.

Could swear i saw 1657 on the 243/4 today, but it was this morning, must have been swapped over.

I will go out in a bit Stu, to see which one it is, and to see if I can get a pic

B7RLE 211x on 957 to Solihull seen at Sheldon 1510

Good spot :) very odd seeing one on there during the day

211x though? BC have 2124 to 2152.

I didn't notice that. I'd guess a 212* as 2 looks the least dissimilar to 1

1902 - 51

Might have been the one I saw, was dark and was across the road so couldn't see the fleetnumber but was around 6 at Tower Hill

Looks like 1657 snuffed it, as a B7 just went past on its running board

To confuse matters, I've seen an E400 on the 23:15 241 from Dudley

[Trident 4609]

So a total of 3 different buses worked that board yesterday? interesting! :)

No, a B7 seemed to take over 1657's board (the evening board - 23:15 from Halesowen), but the Enviro was on a different board (23:15 from Dudley) :)

Very rare   :o  Lets hope there are no diversions in Cradley Heath, or 4199 may be being refurbished as a single decker!  ::) ::) ::)

An unidentified B7RLE on BC14 again today. This seems to be a regular thing now. Usually one a day.

I remember a while back when the Omnilinks were at BC they're used to be 1 or 2 on the 14 then :) What time did you see it Gareth?
