4905 on the BC60 - passed Digbeth CS on its way into city 1904
4654 on the AG37 - passed Digbeth CS on its way into city 1906

Geminis are pretty common on the 37; about the only unusual working you'll see on there is a President.
But as I've said elsewhere, it will seem unusual if you don't see the route that often, so I'll let you off!  ;)
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

B7TL's with Wright Eclipse Gemini bodywork are common on the 37 aren't they?
