Has the 45 moved from WB to Walsall as I was in West Brom today and saw at least 4 Wright Eclipses.

Oh right! I should probably pay more attention.

Didn't the 45 move back to WB during the early part of the pandemic then came back to WA later, or am I thinking of another route?

Yes think it moved April then returned to WA 24 May 2020.

I think WB still do Early morning and evening journeys.

Ran into an old workmate I hadn't seen for a good 20 years (She & her now ex boyfriend used to give me a lift home when I first started work!).

She has been working at NX Walsall for the past few years, I suspect on the Bradford Place rota, as she knows my other friend who I've mentioned on the odd occasion.

(Sadly I gather 'other friend ' has been off sick since all this kicked off!)

Saw 4125 on Moor Street Queensway on the 51 earlier. With a Scania on the 997 - 1890 I think.

Ive got to get an X51 to brum from Cannock tomorrow. Are the flyover roadworks etc creating much of a delay?

Am I the only one who's surprised at how well the X51 is doing at the Cannock section?

We all knew that was coming. Chaserider have said the 60A will run through it (assuming no changes) didn't mention the 3 which passes it. How will it run Tony, as an extension from Cannock? Will all journeys serve there?

Didn't all know it was coming. The designer village owners put a wedge of money out to tender for operators to serve there and NX won the tender

So Chaserider can still run through but commercially? When will NX release the new route?

Yes, but the money almost certainly guarantees the X51 to Cannock will run for the next 3 years
