nxwm5513 on flickr has told me via my pic of 4948 that 4954 is on the 127/128/129.

Seen this morning at 08:10 on Broad Street, on the 129.

Trident Count on the 24: 3
Also, two additional tridents on the 22/23.

And 2123 was on the 24 this morning. Two days in a row, a B7RLE has shown up for the 08:05 departure from Colmore Row...

:o. I live a 5 minute walk away from the 129. Where was it heading when you saw it?

City Centre. Bearing in mind it was 10 past 8 in the morning.
Check out my photos on Flickr & Instagram

This bus is up to something because it is currently in West Bromwich Bus Station at the 121/289 stop.

You must have been in the same place as me at the same time!   A  hybrid usually works board 126/22 which also works a school beforehand. 5401 was on the 1 during the morning rush hour before going back to garage.


In other news 2007 was on WN255 this afternoon

I assume Oxford Street (39 & 79) may have potentially been closed today due to a large fire there. If it was shut, I'd have thought the diversion for that would have been Black Country Route though?

I went past it on the 82 at 8:10 and it looked as if they were going along the same route. My sister lives right by where the fire was so told me about it.

It always seems that when WA loan a bus to WN, it usually appears on the 529. This is probably due to the fact 529 is already programmed into WA's displays
