Not sure what happened to it but the X56 departed Birmingham 35 minutes late this evening. The X51 at the same time was on time, so it can't have been traffic congestion on the previous X51 and I'd be surprised if it accumulated a 35 minute delay on the 10 during half term!

Something happened to 1771 on it's last trip on the 10, so 1779 which was just finishing a running board on the 301 was sent into Birmingham instead

Consequetive numbered B10Ls following each other. Not often you can get that now. 1434 with 1433 behind

Nice shot there Tony - 1434's paintwork has faded badly there.

1886 has just arrived on the Dudley board I normally catch still sporting its Rail Replacement poster on the nearside window.

(Suppose the Chase Line was off again!)

You can make out some faint words saying Birmingham, Aldridge etc. just above the door on 4771 in that photo.

You can on every bus that has had branding removed, the paint is much brighter where it has been protected from light

One of the ex-997 Enviro400 still has the branding (just the white writing) on the offside above the drivers cab window

Psorry my mistake - above the drivers side

I assume that when all the TravelWM buses have been repainted/retrimed then the 57 plate E400s will follow.
The debranded 997 and 50 branded examples look very tired

[Bob]

Are the leather seated enviros not used on the 997 anymore? ??

The X51/997 i believe interwork now meaning both X51 and 997 branded vehicles had to be debranded
