@WestMidlandsTravels E400's aren't noteworthy on the 997 at all, they are used daily as there's never enough Platinums.

4870 was on the Streetly's today. Saw it on the 934 earlier.

Yet the 10A had at least 2 or 3 platinums on it, along with one on the A51, why not put E400s on those rather than on the 997?

Saying that, I did see a crimson E400 on the 10A too, but still.

Any views/comments are my own and do not reflect those of my employer.

New Platinum routes coming but none in Walsall... the Platinum site has finally been updated.

9 - Birmingham to Stourbridge
11 & 12X - Coventry to Warwick University (the only Platinum not stemming from Birmingham other than the 529)
50 - Birmingham to Druids Heath

I could have sworn that WA depot already had 40 Platinum's and will mostly likely get an allocation top up from PN. Plus the Platinum 529 serves Walsall. 75 new buses will only stretch so far...........

It's been updated but there's nothing about the X70 with Platinums 'coming soon' and the 23/24 aren't even on it. Yet the X21 is shown...

I didn't notice that. First time it's been updated though since the X12 launch.

Has Sunday 31 & 32 gone back to Scanias, or was the one I saw in Bloxwich earlier just a one off?

I love Walsall buses

File this under ''Its a small world....".

One of the people in the warehouse Im now working in, used to work at Nx Walsall!

(Apparantly she's a relative by marriage to the other driver Ive mentioned in the past!)

What's the rules about using the "dropping off only" blind? Is it meant to be just when having too much time in city centre? Because my sister is saying she's seen it a bit in Great Barr when peak buses can't cope with the volume of passengers
Now in exile in Oxfordshire....
