So I've just got off 4250 on the 47, been a very long time since going on a double decker on the route.

This is getting a bit ridiculous now I think, don't think the driver wasn't to happy either. Nevertheless  was quite fun ride.

I promise this is the last time I'll say anything about the route now!

On evening services too, so it ventured onto the 49, weird seeing it

4274 (I think. Someone might be able to confirm) was on the 47 earlier. Seen in Wednesbury

Did the bus have a front LED display, if so, it would have been 4274

No it didn't. It must've been 4250. Hey ho, it was still a nice rare working 😉

4747 on 74 today.

Still has the old display setting, by that I mean a static front display and scrolling destination on rear blind, well it was like that when I saw it on the 75 later.

Rumour the return of the 120 service to West Bromwich next spring that's 14/15 running boards, so some thing has to go my guess the 127/128 most logical step as pensnett would already have the 129 service.

Would seem like a sensible action. Wonder if some of Pensnett's B7RLE's would come the same way? I doubt it really as Scania's have only just entered service again at WB.

Maybe the 140/241 go back to single decker with existing double deckers going on to 127/128

I think the return of the 120 west brom may be due more 120E journeys to oldbury as done with the 87 service some years back most cards use to finish in Dudley or city vast majority now finish  oldbury town centre and a 5 minute trip to garage , very minimum of dead mileage.

Somewhen between half 9 and 10. Very vague, sorry(!) - but if it narrows it down, it was at Kingstanding Circle...
