Well as Nathan said clogged up, it is not...but could well be as an Arriva branded bus on the wrong route are about as frequent as a 50 in Birmingham! They even seam to use branded buses for the 9 for example on the 545 that interworks with the 28??? Anyways 35 branded buses also seam to end up on anything, this one on a daytime service!

Presumably they use these branded E200's on Sundays as they *should* be more reliable. They regularly appear on the 257 in Stourbridge.
