Oh ok Matt :)  Reason i didn't think you meant that was because as mentioned previously they are 'meant' to be ALL switched off ;) But evidently not! ;)

When i was in Walsall on the 51 route the other day, numerous cameras were covered up with a sign saying "NOT IN USE"

The speed cameras are all turned off but the one in west brom on the 5/4 route by the fire station seems to randomly flash 3/4 times

This one has been like this for years randomly flashing did it twice to two cars when I walked past last week, also the one by the WBA football ground flashed at a car last week, so any flashing at a bus I'm sure are just faulty camera's I doubt any bus on the 74 gets up to over 30mph with the stop/starts and traffic even in the evening.

They don't have film in the cameras anyway. Its the LED digital ones - the size of a shoe; on a lamppost are the ones to watch.

Out of Questions are newspapers removed from buses at the end of each day, today WB Plaxton had a whole rack full of Yesterdays papers

Isn't it the driver who takes it back to the garage who's supposed to remove them?

was it 4087 by any chance? it was in garage nearly all day.
and it is the cleaners who are supossed to remove the papers and any other rubbish when the bus is back at garage. all the driver has to do is a lost property search and close the windows.

Does the 82/87 run to Colemore Row, only reason I ask is because the timetable on the NXWM site is telling me to Priory Q'Way only ?

Yes they do now, since the tunnels reopened, the 82/87 continue to use and stop on Colmore Row

Its probably not shown on the timetable past Priory Queensway as when it srrives there the 82 becomes the 87 and vice versa.
