6891 broken down at JLR Lode Lane Solihull this morning on BC 877 with destination blind swithced off. I think driver tried to hail 7527 on X2 to transfer passengers but it was to full so went past.
7527 also drove past all the stops on Old Lode Lane to I think, as it was full to capacity.

 The 12.00 , 120 Manchester service ,which I am told was a Selwyns vehicle ,  failed before depature in Digbeth Coach Station yesterday. Announcements gave out informed passengers to await a replacement vehicle which would arrive by 13.40. It arrived spot on time as was a vehicle owned by Travelstar - NE 67 TSE. I guess the days of having the luxury of a stand - by coach [and driver] parked up are long since gone.
