4094 (I think) on the 18 today. Fairly unusual I think.

On Saturday, it seemed to be around 40% Trident, 30% Enviro, 30% President. All three types of deckers are common on there if I'm honest.

Trident 4609

In a way both of you are right and neither of you are right, I'd say there's usually at least 1 president a day on the 18 but it is mainly Tridents again now, with the odd Enviro stepping in, last week a 50 branded one made it on there on a peak board!

As I said I haven't been to Brum for about so haven't seen any allocation changes :)

Don't worry about it I wasn't having a go or anything, tbh the 18 is a very strange route lately, I get the impression YW have been a bit short on buses.

Great Spot vinh1000 :) That's the first Hybrid that's gone on the 957 and trust it to happen when I didn't go to Birmingham this morning.

What time did you see 5509? so I can work out if its out til the evening :)

Just the 59 & 60 to go and maybe the 70 and Airport 900 (which I doubt but definitely not the Coventry 900) ;)

The 97E to Stechford working is usual so are the B7's :)
60 Birmingham - Cranes Park
72/72A Solihull Station - Chelmsley Wood
73 Solihull - Heartlands Hospital
X1 Birmingham - Coventry
X2 Birmingham - Solihull Station
A10 Solihull - Cranes Park / Chelmsley Wood

2116 on the 11C, after a Gemin - you can say, the 11 was WRIGHT off Presidents here! punpunpun :)

Also a B7 on a 9E Working - I'm sure it's unusual for a B7 on the 9 in the afternoon, not to mention it being a 9E working!

Was it a Quinton 9E? There are 2 timetabled in the afternoons (16.07 and 16.23 from Birmingham)

I have only seen Enviro400s on them, so a good spot by me  :)
