Telford's 3779 was on Tamworth route 8/9 today.
Only Guy Arabs (a choice of 63) stopped at my front door 1957-1964!

Telford's 3779 (at Tamworth) worked 14.15 765 Nuneaton to Lichfield then 16.00 785 Lichfield to Shuttington both yesterday and today. Tamworth's 3010 (at Telford) worked the 13.15 481 Stafford to Telford yesterday.

3779 on the 110 this morning.

Don't think I've seen it mentioned here previously, but it's been suggested by someone on my WMBU Facebook page that the 110 Birmingham to Tamworth service, as well as being upgraded to Sapphire status, is also going to become a 24hr service too? Any truth in this?

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

If it did Stu, I would say that was a smart move by Arriva.

Part of me agrees but I'm also thinking who would use it at 1am?

Maybe a few from Birmingham to Sutton, but at 3am Monday to Friday morning?

May appeal at weekends to people in Tamworth wanting to go to Birmingham on a night out perhaps but apart from that

Thanks for the replies guys! As no-one else seems to have come across this rumour already, I'm just going to assume that the guy on my Facebook page is just spouting more rubbish again.  8)

Whats peoples view on the way Arriva are handling the Tamworth to Lichfield corridor? Why all of a sudden did they introduce the X65? Is it because of the success of the expre55? Which if so proves they are not interested in passangers at all and just the dollar!!!

Basically it is as you see it, a reactive response to Central Buses introducing their expr55
