Noteworthy Workings - March 2014

[Trident 4609]

620 and 634 both on WN 59 (All day boards). 620 is on 59/11 which will stay out late night although I have been informed it will be swapped at some point for a more appropriate bus (Trident or Spectra most likely).

634 was taken off about 35 minutes ago and swapped with 4002 t the bus station in W'ton. (I believe 634 has been put onto the 33)

Also today:
4682 on WA8/89. Seen going down Lichfield Rd in Wednesfield past Poundstretcher/Tesco/Gala Bingo at 12:25 going towards Wolverhampton

Do you mean a ALX00 bodied B7TL? PB don't have any tridents. From a distance our tridents look similar due to having ALX400 bodies also. :)

Dom, Nice spot with the Omnicity on the 16 :) I wouldn't say they were rare but they are noteworthy ((BTW was it an Omnicity Double Decker or an Omnilink Single decker?)

Today:

4011 and 4561 both on WN1 today. Caught 4561 from Tettenhall Wood about 12:25 and saw 4011 later on about 2PM heading towards Dudley on Wolverhampton Road East near the Beacon Centre.

OmniLink, No.

OmniCity, Yes.

As Nath rightly said, not rare per se, but noteworthy none the less.

As I said then they do put in appearances on the 16 but still noteworthy. Omnilink Single Deckers are fairly common though so that's why I asked :)

Yeah, ALX400 bodied B7TL, but I think you knew which bus I meant though.
