TT would say that makes it an excellent bus! And that smoke helps him run bang on time @karl724223 @pndriver

The design of the stands outside  Matalan is wrong buses on the stand outside Pizza Hut cannot pull away. I agree on stand like the ones outside Matalan you can't park straight but on the other stands in merry hill you can. Some drivers don't have any patience and try and Push Hansons or diamond off the stands when they are on time and the National express bus is late surely they could move onto another stand or wait a couple of minutes this would stop the bus station coming to a standstill.
