i saw several buses sunday when I camwe back from wolves on 529, I had 1757 home on the 301 and couldn't help but notice that somebody had pinched the shatter proof hammer leaving the glass and the rubber seal on the back seat!!

I was on the 89 couple weeks ago, kids at the back decided to take off all the seat cushions at the back and remove the plastic hand on the seats. same bunch of kids were on the 29 on sunday

It was going to a school in Edgbaston to operate the 886 school service to Walsall. It passed me in Perry Barr around 16:40.

Not posting this in 'Noteworthy Workings' as it has become very common. But 6755 is on the 77 today.

Can anyone tell me what's happening with 4076? The last I heard it was at bc. Has it returned to walsall and is it now in service regularly? I've seen the others at walsall fairly often but not 4076. Any info would be much appreciated.

Busman Jamie

I didn't think 4076 had been to Walsall?

Thought it was 4024,4033,4068,4072,4073,4105? Could be wrong

Why not just check the fleetlist?

They have 11 at Walsall, 4076 so far has done the 159 school bus once. It is currently being MoT'd

That's a good question! I haven't seen 4076 at Walsall. 4076 only did 159 in the morning on 11th December 2015, then went to BC to receive repairs for the MoT - that was on 11th January 2016.

Thanks for the info re: 4076 chaps. Hopefully it will make an appearance soon!

4870 on WA89. Seen on Wednesfield Rd in Heath Town at 15:21. Very rare. Usually single deckers (B7RLE's/Omnilinks on Sundays)

Probably a change bus, travelled full length of 89 on the 11:05 ex Walsall today on an Eclipse and passed the other one in Bloxwich which was also an Eclipse
Now in exile in Oxfordshire....

@Kevin it replaced 1768 which was originally allocated.

4307 was changed for 1881 much to my disappointment (10s and 6's late night board)
