Isn't 1871 on loan to BY @Tony? I'm sure I saw a post earlier of it on the 8A.

I saw it as well myself in Sparkbrook.

Yes, that's why it's not tracking, I forgot to delete that one. It should go back to PB this week and be replaced

@Tony any news to report on 5409?

[Jack]

Pretty sure I saw 2116 running NIS along Wood Green Road on Saturday... May of been another but that one rings bells...

2116 is definitely dead, I've just seen it at Walsall

Fair enough, trying to cast my mind back to what was on the 11/11A on Saturday. Was 2113/4, plenty of Urban 1's with the exception of 1909. However, I did see an Urban 2 at J9 running dead going up to either Dudley or Merry Hill. Unless it was 2118...

The 11/11A are booked Volvo B7RLE Saturday
The 29 is booked scania on a Saturday

2118 was on 10/10A yesterday

I know, I'm trying to think of what that mystery Urban 2 was running dead, oh well. The 29 is meant to be booked Scania on Saturdays but I see a fair amount of B7RLE's on it on Saturdays, as well as 70A as they interwork. Then again they pretty much spread the single deckers (not really E200's) onto each other's routes, B7RLE's seem to make occasional appearances on the 45, 2118 was on it on Tuesday and 1753 was on it last week too.

Don't know the mystery B7RLE running dead.

Most likely on Saturday to keep Scania E200 spare as B7RLE can't do certain routes. Darlaston services are supposed to be Scania /E200 service 34/39. The 36 boards are strictly to be E200

Yes I know, 19 boards are solid E200 as well, but they one does tend to creep onto the 29/70A every now and again on a Saturday.

[PB2938]

There is an extra 19 board PM Mon Fri does 1450 WA bus and 1520 Bloxwich then onto 31s at 1612 bs booked to use E200 has had 17xx allocated odd occasion.
