X233 NNO has had it's Centrad blinds removed and is being prepared for withdrawal. X602 EGK should have it's Centrad blinds removed soon too.

If the blinds are being removed and the buses prepared for withdrawal, you probably won't find them on any public service now. ;D

Mainly does the 39, 40 and I think the 41 or 42 school run. One does the 16:45 88 from Erdington daily which would be your best bet.

They still have a few weeks until Central plan to withdraw them.

The things you learn.... Looking through Tony's photos of Central Buses and I remember most of them from their days on the 7, but never remember them having a Lance and an Excel, both in fleet livery as well! See even back then they were doing it kinda right

Are the Routemasters still in *public* use, out of interest? They're allocated to the 88, aren't they?

Have been used on public services yes, wouldn't say it's been "allocated" on a route

Ah, so the scarcity of Central Buses' RMs are down to one. :( Thanks for the info, guys! :)

You wouldn't know, by any chance, which route it'll be likely to appear on; or is it just a gamble? ???
