Tony, its going to be a good event but I have not seen much publicity? Are you missing a trick here and maybe more people would turn up if they knew about it?

Which buses go from city to it as I am coming from Kingswinford I'm thinking 205 Dudley then 126 Brum? Or would 256/7 to Stourbridge then 9 to Brum be faster?

Where else do you want it publicised?
NX themselves keep putting it on facebook & Twitter. It is on their website as well. They got the Express & Star to run a story about it this week. The Yardley Wood Bus Club (co-organisers) took an advert out in buses magazine. A lot of buses have passenger information notices on advertising it.

On the NX website there isn't any specific times. Only when the first Shuttle Bus leaves town. There is no times for how long in the day it will be in for.

I don't know whether this is destined for the Birmingham BusBash or the SVR event at Bewdley, but City of Exeter Daimler CVD6 JFJ 873 (built 1950) was in Kingswinford High Street about an hour ago heading towards Pensnett.  Not even the 255 has anything that old!

On Facebook it does. On the NX website it only mentions the time of the first Shuttle Bus leaving the City. Doesn't say the actual times.

Apologies, I was referring to the home page on the site where it was saying what I put in my previous comment. I don't usually look in 'Useful Information', that's probably why.

I havent seen any publicity on Walsall vehicles!

Is there likely to be anything coming from Aston Manor or Wythall?
