Ken Jones visited Solihull recently and took a few moments to capture shots of the local bus scene. Like Birmingham - Solihull has no bus station, buses arrive and depart at stops on the street.

| Dennis Trident / Alexander ALX400 4377 (BV52 OAP) [no not a senior citizen bus] has been parked outside the bank for the driver to go and get some cash, making it difficult for other vehicles to pass. Undeterred, the driver of Scania OmniLink BX10 AEN successfully manages to squeeze past. The DD bus indicator regrets the actions of its driver. |
 |
| DD with all over side advertising also crosses pedestrian crossing on wrong side of road to get past BV52 OAP. Both buses are Dennis Trident / Alexander ALX400s. |
