That's the second time 4914 has been at West Bromwich Bus Station in the past few weeks. I did think maybe that is why 4808 is on loan to PB but surely they have enough Double Deckers to cover with it being reduced Summer PVR?

There was another E200 on the 74 today, didn't catch the fleet number though.
LWB or SWB?

It was LWB, wasn't 819 again though

Cheers for that Nathan :) I saw it parked in the layby area of Wolverhampton Bus Station

The SWB E200's are normal on the 42/3 alongside B6's,Volvo B7TL's (ALX400 and Gemini bodied) and Mercs.


4272 must be the bus JackC saw on the 40 earlier

Believe it was indeed. Besides 4272, only saw the usual E200s on there today.

Should still be out, should be by Cape Hill on the 83, towards West Bromwich. It'll do the last 89 from Birmingham (22:50)
Class 153, 155 and 156. The Super Sprinters
"Around the corner" routes: 21, 89
Local routes: 12/A, 48/A
Semi-local routes: 54, 80, 87

Most used routes in bold

I saw it too, passed City Hospital at around 08:05, no Mercs on WB83/89 for a long while

Think I saw a Gemini on either WB45 or WB46 at around 1845 in WB Bs yesterday, was on the right stand but was looking through a few panes of glass, also a Merc on WB40 yesterday as well

Enjoy both types and the B6's at WB, not long to go
