One or two of the last departures from City on the 22/23 and 24 do swap, so for example a 24 comes in and leaves as a 23A and a 22 in leaves as a 24 but I don't know if this involves the 29A (which interworks with the 24) or if it also happens on a Sunday.

If not then it is mind bogglingly noteworthy.

Unless a hybrid was out on the 24 today, with the allocator either forgetting or not being concerned about the interworking with the 29A?

@Mike K don't the Harborne routes change to B7RLE during the evenings anymore?

@Sh4318, the 24/29/29a all interwork at night so the 24 does switch to B7RLE but the 22/23 are now hybrid operated at night again since the last lot of service changes.

On looking at the Harborne timetables it looks like there is all sorts of interworking on last few journeys of the night from Colmore Row. I might be wrong but I think the final 29A at 23.35 on a Sunday is the 22/23 board that arrives into Colmore Row at 23.32. If so this working would be normal. Good call though, certainly noteworthy.

4016 1 just coming into Dudley by the Fellows.

4579 on WN28 and a Trident also on the 82. That board usually gets either B6s or Mercs.

82/04 or 82/05 both had tridents on today /04 had 4542 and /05 4557 I think, but both have had a trident for a majority of last week and today :)

[the trainbasher]

2 Volvo b7rle on the 126 both left Dudley 1725 one for wolverhampton one for city.

[Trident 4609]

586 on WN79
4579 on WN28 (Came off 59 to replace a broken down B6)
2007 and 2063 on WN126

Also 2070 worked the 19:25 126 departure from Wolverhampton Bus Station. So 3 B7RLE's in total on the 126
