You are clearly mistaken I am afraid. There are 12 buses on the 24 in the afternoon. They left Smallbrook Queensway at
15:59 - 5505
16:02 - 2138
16:08 - 4940
16:32 - 4878
16:32 - 2148
16:35 - 4943
16:58 - 4938
17:00 - 4949
17:08 - 4934
17:10 - 4935
17:30 - 2134
17:31 - 4879

I presume you went home on 2124 which was at Smallbrook Queensway at 17:10, so would have seen 4938/49 while waiting, and 4934/35 gone past with a mistaken service number on a third bus. Four buses in 12 minutes

I did go home on 2124. Honestly I'm not lying, 3 e400s went past me while I was waiting with 24 on it. A 29, a.22, an 80 and and 80A.

I was outside AG briefly today awaiting my 31 to Solihull and I clocked at least 6 11As in the space of 5 minutes. At least 3 of them were running as 11E Acocks Green. The clockwise variant of the route seemed to be running well.

Oak Tree Lane junction in Selly oak was screwed this evening. Temporary traffic lights on the junction, plus diverted traffic from the pershore road accident, meant chaos all round. Took me 45 minutes to go a mile as the temporary lights were stuck on red. Absolute p*sstake by the workers there who did nothing to help traffic flow when they could see that the lights were messed up. A NXWM Volvo single decker also appeared to have broken down in the bus lane at the traffic lights.

Strange how 1767 continued to Hayley green despite being later than 1838 which terminates at Halesowen.

@karl724223 it was 2 streetdecks I believe in 9Es

Oh so you reckon you could regulate a service then?

You see turning 1838 put that bus exactly on time for the return journey. Turning 1767 would have still left both of them late, so only left one bus needing adjustment later on!

Ah I see fair enough I presume 1767 became a 4H short working from Hayley green
