Can't think of no reason for 1430 to be allocated to the same board unless

The last journey from Walsall at 1835 only runs to New Invention
On manuel blinds display New Invention via Bentley

It's good if you're looking for 1430 you'll know where to find it.

Regarding 77 B10L

On the odd ocasstion peak time board

77-06 leaves garage at 1425 and does

1440 Walsall
1525 Sutton
1620 Walsall
1710 Sutton
1750 Walsall

This board occasionally has B10L allocated this week

Tuesday 1430
Wednesday 1453

I have noticed sometimes drivers on the 69 use the blinds Wolverhampton Via Darlaston

This seems a likely theory, perhaps board W69/03 is kept to vehicles with Hanovers where possible as the paper blinds would not have a suitable display for the final journey

Does Wednesfield feature on the blinds of WA Vehicles? Reason I ask is because one of the last few journeys on the 69 will now terminate at Wednesfield instead of Wolverhampton. The board which covers that journey is a B10L mosrt of the time uncles they allocate B7's to the board now so it is programmed in n the LED display?

Don't think Walsall have ever run only to Wednesfield.

You may find that they programme it into the Dot Matrix/LED Displays so I think they may allocate B7's,Omnilink,tridents etc to the board.

Also I have just heard that Services 10/A and 159 are being diverted in the Walsall Wood area due to a serious accident

There's no Wednesfield on manuel blinds unless its added over the weekends
On most B10Ls there is no destination for 69 34 38 39
As the ones that do have them

Eg

34 Bilston then to Stowlan the number blind for this is 61B which is
Extension most of the time buses display Bilston via Darlaston

I have noticed sometimes drivers on the 69 use the blinds Wolverhampton Via Darlaston

Don't they angle the blind so only Wolverhampton is showing?

Trident 4609

Yes that's wat I meant :) Thanks.  Although Some drivers don't roll the blind enough so sometimes you can fully see darlaston on the blind

Tony

Anyone still after 244? It is on the 336 today

Trident 4609

Seen 1419 going down the Black Country Route towards Willenhll Out Of Service early this afternoon. Saw 1419 later on working the 69 running very late alongside 1446

The 69/40 reliability has worsened since the
Re-routing of thease services.

69 today's was up to 30 mins late

And tbh I have noticed a decrease in the number of passengers since it was rerouted away from the Bus Station/Linthouse Lane. I would like to see them reinstate the Linthouse Lane section as that's where a lot of the passengers got off from Wolverhampton/Wednesfield. Also I would reroute it to serve the station but leave the City Centre via Queen St/Broad St
