Default Bus numbering

But someone on high decreed that suffix letters were not 21st century so
they have all gone, with the last being the 77A (now roughly the 87).

The 11 in Birmingham goes up to 11E doesn't it? So the Outer Circle can
be divided into sectors?


If you want suffix letters, go to Chennai (Madras) in India. Many
numbers seem to have all possible suffix letters from A to Z. And the
18A has Ashok Leyland Titan rear platform double-deckers. It's pretty
confusing for visitors, though.

So why aren't we all exhorted to wear walking helmets?
