It isn't on a daytime 2/3. It was on a morning peak board that just does Yardley Wood to City and back

4594 came off the 59 to replace it with 4013 being put onto the 59 (On board 59/11 which was swapped with 4545 after one trip)

4013 has been on 5 different running boards today, that must be some sort of record!

Did a 785 school run on 785-01 this morning
then came out and did a trip on the 126 on 126-08 as a change bus at lunchtime.
then came out in the evening peak on r-b 126-20 which just does a trip on the 712 (no 126).
then one trip on the 59 on running board 59-11 (not a straight swop with 4594).
Now on r-b 32-02 doing one 32 and one 33!

Presume it had came off a 126 when I saw it parked up NIS on Stand U in W'ton Bus Station. Thanks for that Tony :)

didnt think 4013 could do a 126 unless it was a short e working to dudley

If there is no other bus they can use, then yes it can do a 126 to Birmingham.

Really it shouldn't do as it doesn't comply with the Birmingham Emmisions Zone but I suppose it was used as it was the only vehicle available at lunchtime to replace another bus. It only did one trip so was replaced when it got back to W'ton with a more appropriate bus that became available to replace it

Am surprised that on rare occasions like this, the Spectra didn't do a 126E to Town Hall and then it remains compliant.  :)
