4309 on WA301. Seen leaving Walsall at 9am.

4861 (51 branded) on WA301
Also 4681 just pulled in on the 302 although this may be the journey that comes off an X51 or something like that? Pulled in at 09:17 so if anyone can confirm whether its the usual morning dd trip on the 302 that would be great :)

Must have been a swap as the 3 was allocated all B7's plus the usual trident (4570). Where did you see it and what time as i want to try and catch it :)

4567 on WN2. Its right in front of me loading to go towards Warstones at Wolverhampton Bus Station as i type at 16:14

555 on WN 3, seen it on Lichfield Street at 14:46. Heading to Castlecroft.

Currently aboard 555 on Darlington St going to Castlecroft. 16:29 off Stafford St

Will upload my photo of 555 and a couple of other noteworthy workings i've captured onto Flickr and post the link on here

And this evening 2066 is on the 126. Its about to work the 19:25 departure from W'ton Bus Station

822 was on the 48 today, seen at Bearwood around 17:11 - Usually Mercs or B7TLs

With WB losing 4 single deck (564, 569, 1702 & 3602) and one double deck (4115) so far without replacement and two buses away for refurb they will be working to the limit with fewer spares. They have managed to get a full service out yesterday and today without borrowing from other garages, so a few odd workings are likely. It is possible their first new buses may arrive Friday.

Nonetheless, surely it's still noteworthy. :P

Also, 4780 was on the 16 and a handful on the 907* (4697 and 4777 - i think)

*Maybe not noteworthy (as it is one of the 907's allocations), however, I only ever see at least one Scania when I 'encounter' the service...

320 made it onto the 28 this afternoon. Must have been a change bus as it was not on there this morning, and it has been a while since a Solo made it onto the 28. I would love to see a new Enviro200 on there one day

On there again this afternoon as well

I had the pleasure of 320 on the 28 this afternoon. Very quick off the mark, but after it got into 3rd gear, it was very sluggish. Other than that, a very nice bus. I think we are a bit short of OmniLinks this week, as 320 has been on the 28 3 times this week (was on the 654 yesterday).
