Have any Presidents been spotted on the 301 or 302 yet?

4105 has been on it a few times. Saw it broken down in St. Pauls Bus Station on Monday.

4105 is on there today

[Westy]

Just had a thought.

When the Presidents were previously at Walsall, there was one on the 301 one Sunday.

We only got as far as the depot, when we turned in there & we had to swop to a B6.

Dont think I saw a President after that, so it must have been the last day before they transferred over to Birmingham.

4033 is on 10/A

If it stays on board it will do

x51 Walsall 1655
X56 Birmingham 1740

If it did I will be gutted! Had the chance to leave work early at 5 and if I did that would have been me ride home on the X56!

It did work the X51. Unless it broke down, yes it would have done the X56 too.

Damnit.
Totally would have rode it all the way to Burntwood as well, because I didn't have any plans for the evening.

Can confirm 4033 did serve the X56. Got pictures of it on X51 and X56.

The only day I'm not out and the X51/X56 is a President! I hope they allocate a President on that running board tomorrow!

Its not uncommon to get deckers on the 301/2 on a Saturday.

I think there are 3 deckers on the 301 and an Enviro400 on the 302

[Kevin]

Anyone know what normally does the morning X56? Never see it myself cause it's too late for my 8am start at work. Just wondering whether it's a Platinum or not.
I know the morning short is a 51 board so usually branded and the evening run is from the 10 so any old decker

I saw it one morning last week and it was an unbranded Enviro400 (4869 or 4870)

Ah nice one.
Also anyone know if it still then goes onto a 997 short working after?

Yes, it still does then returns back to garage. I believe it is booked a Platinum, but due to the nature of the board its probably not uncommon to find E400s or even Tridents on it.

I've seen a handful of X56s and they have always been Platinums (My Observation)
