Lets hope a farewell day, maybe they could transfer one or two back to all the garages that had them, but don't now so they could have a last day going round there old haunts, eg: PE for the 222?
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

Yes, seemed a huge convention of spotters, nearly ran 2 down whilst driving to the Hawthorns!

But suppose West Brom is the place to be at the moment, Darts and B6's on the way out, Mercs also on the way out plus new Enviro 200's and 400's! And in West Brom you get to see buses from PE, WB, WA and WN, can't think of an interchange that gets more!

9? Speaking of the 9, does BC still operate the 9S?

37351ml

The real time information in the 5/46 bus stop by the Red Lion on all saints way is showing service information for the 8 and 9 to coventry rail station and green lane which caused confusion for passengers.it has the location correct though.

Bearwood is a good shout, though not regularly served by 5 garages, and I personally don't count Birmingham as it is made up of lots of different sections, so you can't stand in just one place to see buses from 9 garages

Might be me, not got my brain into gear yet, but what PE route passes Moor Street?
