1475 on WA69 just seen heading towards wolverhampton at 17.25 havent seen a B10 on there for time

Stevo

4043 on the 37 - I rode the whole route to Carrs Lane - a good bus, too.

CL

4668(?)*; Not in Service, on Icknield Street (8A Side of the Road) < Something to record. Nvermind Geminis, deckers don't usually 'stray' onto this road often... I've seen a few Presidents, but nonetheless, all NIS. Would anybody know what an AG bus is doing near Spring Hill? (Would it be starting an 11 journey from City Hospital/Summerfield Park, perhaps?) ???

*Seen from a distance. Can only assume it's 4668, I definitely saw 46_8...

AG 7026 was on the 31 this morning - actually FELT unusual just being on it, that used to Geminis on there.  :)

Also saw an unidentified President a few minutes ago, in Acocks Green, doing a 37E to Bullring Markets; might also have been 4043 depending on what time Stevo saw it.
My locals:
2 - Birmingham to Maypole | 3 - Birmingham to Yardley Wood
11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley

Trident 4194

2087-9 departed halesowen for city at 15:25, imagine that will get quite an overcrowding

Trident 4609

1446 on WA89. Seen on Lichfield Rd going towards Wolverhampton just after 18:00

2061 (5 branded) and 2067 on WN59. 2061 replaced 4592 which funnily enough is on the 5 and 2067 replaced 4562

4001 was allocated to a late night 59 board this morning (59/11) but has now been swapped for 4578 (Which is what should have been on there in the first place!)

mranon

2067 was swapped with 4562 earlier this morning due to a school using the service for a trip. i would hazard a guess that 2061 was swapped later as the times didnt tie up. made a change travelling on a trident on the 5 lol. fair play to the driver of 4562 this morning, as people were waving the decker on. he persisted and stopped making sure the old dears knew it was a 5 to wolves. they took some persuading - makes you wonder why they bother with destinations lol

An ultra rare working tonight!

4562 on WN10! (And 5 due to interworking). Caught it on the 20:20 ex Wolverhampton.

I do not recall a double deck on the 10 for at least 2-3 years (This being down to Tridents not being fitted with transponders) however, the Perton barrier is down atm i.e. the Trident was able to get through tonight.

Worked the 21:10 5 ex Wolves. Second Trident to operate the 5 today. So pretty rare also.

2061 is still out on 59's. Did the 21:12 from Wolverhampton.
