As they seem to be refurbing/repainting the ALX400s I'd say it's likely

Just because West Brom are repainting some of their branded ALX400s, it doesn't mean that they will be re-branded. At least it means that West Brom are slowly getting rid of the rubbish green branding

I Didnt say it did, I was just mearly asking if the 74/75 would receive a branding

Off topic a littl, but how many ALX's are still branded for '74/75' at WB

I have it as 4227, 4228, 4230, 4231, 4232, 4248, 4265, 4267, 4270, 4271 - so that is 10

4229 is in for refurb, should be finished shortly, that did have the branding

Will the 74/75 receive a new branding or not ?

As they seem to be refurbing/repainting the ALX400s I'd say it's likely

Take it will follow the 50/87/5 branding

Don't think the 934/5/6 branding style would work on the Soho Road ;D

Do you think the 900/957 will receive the similar style branding to the 934/935/6

It would be good if they did but I don't think its going to happen :)
60 Birmingham - Cranes Park
72/72A Solihull Station - Chelmsley Wood
73 Solihull - Heartlands Hospital
X1 Birmingham - Coventry
X2 Birmingham - Solihull Station
A10 Solihull - Cranes Park / Chelmsley Wood

Oh Sorry John thought it was replying to me  ::) ::) ::).


It would be nice to see the 900/957 branded similar to the 934

Refurbing and repainting of vehicles can sometimes indicate new route branding is coming

Does the Soho Road strike you as a place you'd particularly want to spend a lot of time?

Yes. The Soho Road has some of the best collection of shops in Birmingham, Birmingham Carnival was there last week, and it is certainly no worse for trouble than most areas of Birmingham. The only annoying thing about Soho Road is the random parking causing the slow traffic that started this thread. It certainly is nowhere near the top 3 places I would not want to be in voluntarily.

When was the last time you were down Soho Road? You will find all the different cultures mixing far better down there than you will in other areas
