#664
1480 on the 65
4282 on the 67
b6le 681 on the 405, this is rare now as this bus is normally on the 428/9 and the 405/6 uses near enough the same b6le and mercs each day with the return branding on so usually sees (519/533/595/674/680/1589/92/1617-9).

We'll get rid of your bus to Wolves and replace it with one to Walsall instead.......... Oh the joy of a Network Review. -_-

Tridents on the 40 are the main allocation so that isn't rare.

And likewise the B7RLEs are the main allocation on the 29, having replaced the Omnilinks there.
My locals:
2 - Birmingham to Maypole | 3 - Birmingham to Yardley Wood
11A/C - Birmingham Outer Circle | 27 - Yardley Wood to Frankley
76 - Solihull to Northfield | 169 - Solihull to Kings Heath

Although in the weekday Tridents are usually allocated to some boards, it is usually single deck operated on a Sunday, up until very recently by B6's.

Recently on weekdays, the 40/41 is a right mish-mash of buses, and I have no idea what will turn up. It is usually a mix of B10Ls, Tridents & B7RLEs, however it is not that uncommon to see a Gem or OmniLink on there!

2102 on the S1. Seems a waste of mileage on a new bus. I'd like to see them win the 36 & 40 contracts, to see a return of Midibuses, even if it's some of the better B6LEs, and then see them work the S1.

Also was a Eclipse2 on the 5, seen in Solihull on a short working to Sparkhill, whilst an Outer Circle Gemini came off the 1 at 1530 and changed into a 37 from Acocks Green to Solihull.

Sorry i forgot the fact it was on a sunday. Yes it is unusual to see a trident on the 40 on a sunday.
