It was parked in the bays at Merry Hill Bus Station around 12.45pm ish with X96 on the front. It could have been a driver messing with displays, didn't  see it leave

Normal for a Sunday

Ok thanks, surely the 140 could be converted to double decker on Sunday's, I know it inter works with 241 and 244E

Passenger loadings suggest otherwise

Perhaps people should sit on the seats instead of standing up when there's no need.......

Exactly, I catch if not see the 140 every Sunday and it's never overflowing to the point of requiring deckers. Personally I don't think they're needed during the week, I think the 140/241 could easily cope with singles, maybe struggle a little at peak times but in the middle of the day ect. I think B7s are almost sufficient for it

241 I agree. 140, it is worth putting Tridents on. As an example, it only takes a couple of 9's to be late and you can be reasonably full.

Yes, you get the same with the Coventry Road services; it just takes one 60 to go missing or run late, then everyone piles onto the 58 or 59 and you end up with a rammed single decker.
