S1 has been increased to half hourly over the Christmas period (Sunday service)

Either I'm missing something or I've waited over 45 minutes for an Igo bus which still hasn't turned up!!

If its the 226 trainbasher, I'm in Dudley wondering where the 1815 is.....

the trainbasher

#654
Yes it is the 226. I Had to wait in the freezing cold because the bus coming off the 1615 ex Dudley left merry hill not in service at 1702.

The 1815 ex merry hill is solo 139.

I'm that cold I've just got home and put my head in the oven to warm up! Pity I can't fit the rest of myself in...

Yeah that happened last week at merry hill. because of the distance to depot, i think 1 driver normally goes back to depot, and another comes from depot to take up the 1715. Explains why I'm still waiting.

Do people want Diamond back on evening/Sunday 226's then?! :P

the trainbasher

Diamond occasionally failed to run/consistantly ran late so they're both as bad as each other

Diamond weren't bad on the evenings, used to use most 2315 journeys and never had an FTO. only gripe is the unrealistic timetable, and the Ks03 solos, that are so slow they can't keep time, especially round merry hill

I actually really like the KS03 solos-I thought based on reports on here they were awful until I had a ride on one a couple of months back. Refurbed seats, nice and warm inside, ok up the hills. The question is whether they cope with the loadings on the route...
