Sorry if this has been mentioned elsewhere but the next stop announcements aren't working on the new WN8 service. Anyone know if this is being rectified soon ?

Presume they still work on the WNX8 ?

Hi @TT90.

To answer both of your questions.

Firstly that are probably still working on the NSA on the WN8.

Secondly the NSA does still work on the WNX8.

Hi @I.murphy123

They may have updated some of the NSA tp show 8 and the next stop. As I know it's an ongoing process just like service 1 to Tettenhall Wood.

I got the number 1 friday night late as it was the first bus leaving for Wolverhampton. It was the hybrid with green branding inside.

**update just found the next stop announcements on youtube and it's brilliant haha!**

Yea that happens sometimes for some reason. It should be fine for most other buses though.

Have the announcements gone completely now on the 4, 4M (Walsall) and 1 (Wolverhampton)? On a side note Diamond are trialling them in places.

They've definitely taken them off the 4, and have been for some time now.  As for the 1, I'm sure they're still on.  Not used it in a while, so not 100% sure.  Hope they have taken them off though, god they were awful!
