They can't be, it is only a timetable change on the 1 & 2 VOSA registration above, not route as well

Well the route wont change just the timetable

Obviously! As per my reply

Bob

They'll just drive people to the train. Both 1 & 2 are never on time in Walsall take a ridiculously long route ( they've basically cut the frequent fast link ) & the changes are pretty unpopular and don't really benefit anyone. To be fair they've turned them to shit....

What I mean is the route is registered from dog in tree to walsall as per the registration as 1/2/2E.

So maybe they could just change the timetable

The VOSA registrations say otherwise (timetable only), unless there is another registration yet to be published

Bob

Well with the 70 coming back & the X70  being reduced to mainly an off peak daytime service which will probably die, the possibility of the 1 &2 going back to original routes, the X60 probably going etc it looks like a lot of things are going to go back to pretty much what they used to be. Why don't arriva admit they haven't got a f#####g clue lol? Can't see the 61 lasting either.  And the pointless 74B. ..

VOSA are wrong as ever...  Was looking at the registration change today, routes definitely back to what they were pre-changes.  Didn't look at timetables, suspect frequencies as now.

Bob

Like I say shows how hopeless they are...constantly messing with the services how are passengers supposed to keep up

Thanks for the confirmation @Cheese, that clears that one up at least

2E will no longer serve Pye Green
70, 70E & X70. 70 will go via Cheslyn Hay, 70E are the evening journey's.

Bob

Crikey it seems like they're always changing services! Where will the 70E run to and from?  And evening service?  Thought the last one was about 730?
