On network West midlands site it has a dress of hi ride as 316 bearwood rd the old bearwood coaches address  in thought he was based in hook rd &depot on an industrial estate in Handsworth

No he is based at his own house. Where his back garden is where he stores his buses - remember the DVSA weren't pleased about that as they did not believe he could do his inspections properly due to how it was. Have a look at Google Street View. You'd be surprised, very self-sufficient, but maybe too self sufficient.

An interesting view, very compact!

That must be one of the few registration plates not obscured by Google

40X is now on the same bus stops as the 11 by Winson Green tram stop.

I can't keep up with his route changes! It's basically the 11 between Bearwood and Perry Barr, but going up to One Stop. May as well just renumber it 11E!
My locals:
2 - Birmingham to Maypole | 3 - Birmingham to Yardley Wood
11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath
