 I live on the dead mileage route for PB services but unfortunately I still haven't seen any PB allocations actually in service yet?? Where are they?  On a recent rush hour jaunt from Wolverhampton to Birmingham (moor st).on the 126 service. via Dudley,( after An hour and a half and a stiff leg)..  I saw all bar one of the branded allocations up to 6785 on this service and a few unbranded ones as well. 
Mind the Gap.....?:-)

As BC's existing Platinum's are being de-branded, I would expect the first of BC's new Platinum's may be imminent, they might be following on the production line that has just completed WN's batch, thus deliveries to PB & BC may run in tandem

How  many more platinums are left to arrive at Park Lane

The only two I haven't seen reports of on delivery or arrived at WN for are 6791 & 6795, but I suspect that they are both already there by now.

6795 is showing as taxed, 6791 isn't

The X61 that's being introduced soon - is this a replacement for, or in addition to the 61?

I thought it might have been the 63 that had a limited stop variant, with it covering much more of the faster Bristol Rd South to Frankley, and serving the redeveloped Longbridge and Rubery village.

At some point or another all of the original 61/62/63 routes will have had a limited stop variant.

Any Platinums out on the Suttons today?

They won't be sitting in the garage doing nothing
