Well you will have a long wait.

Might be on in November

On a related note, did NX run the Amazon services over the last Christmas period? I don't recall seeing any A5's at all.

Don't Fastline operate Amazon services. They do A51 in Walsall and I'm sure I've seen them on Chester road. Streetly A52?

That's why it's normally better to use operators or TfWM for info

Yes, drivers don't want the abuse of wrong passengers

I'll remember that. Should i be there say 10 mins before the bull st time?

Btw, according to an Arriva driver NX are axing the Cannock X51s from the end of March! I'd imagine its more likely Arriva would be axing some of their Walsall journeys, if the best they can do is 18 year old knackers on it or even Solos on the 1 regularly they must be doing fantastic!  :)
