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

From my Brum days (many years sgo now, so the info may be out of date),
the Birmingham Outer Circle route 11 is split into 11A and 11C, for
anti clockwise and clockwise operations respectively. The inner circle
route 8 is similarly split. 'E' is a generic suffix across the whole
system to denote a bus that is terminating before the end of the route.

Quite a sensible system really. The one thing that I couldn't master
(until I became familiar with the geography of the city) was that
radial routes never changed their destination blinds, and you just had
to know if they were running to or from the city!
