Great. MS10 is worse than MS8A.

Two questions. Will the X21/X22 still atop at NS1 along with the 23/24/82/87, and where will they turn around after stopping at MS10? Up round Old Square and back? Is there really any difference between that and what it's doing now.

Is the reason the X21/X22 moving stops because of too many buses at MS8A with the 61/63? Because I'm pretty sure the 16/16A/82/87 that used to stop there accounts for more buses.

I saw 4847 being recovered with a tow truck from Auckland Drive, just before the junction at Arran Way at 01:50 this morning. Bustimes suggests it had been there since around 00:15.

Nice overtime slip there

Hello TfWM,
Another Coventry (large population city east of Birmingham) error that needs fixing.

Coventry city centre stop CU4 Cox St
I been watching this one for a while.
The RTI is only showing the SC X17 service and missing out all the many local NXC services that call. Crazy.

Have you actually reported this to TfWM?

There will probably still be some 2009/10 Scanias lingering around after this batch of electrics. Hopefully NX don't eat into the 2007 Enviro 400s with this batch, they are still doing very well.
