Route with the most previous operators

[Gareth]

Whilst looking though some old timetables the other day I came across many for the 663 (now 53) bus service from Erdington - Heartlands Hospital (Extended to Smiths Wood).

There have been a lot of operators on this route!

Midland Red West
Tame Valley Travel
Stevensons
West Midlands Travel
Petes Travel
Zaks
Central Connect / Blue Diamond

Its got me thinking about other routes. Is the 663 a record? Are there other routes with the same, similar or even more operators? (All at separate times, not in competition with each other)
