But is the 35B commercial or tendered? If it's tendered we might see another operator on it.

Cue bob you mean lol...not really interested in the walsall to lichfield routes tbh. Doesnt take a genius to work out thatththey're not particularly successful?  No one else has ever made a lot from them have they lol

But by combining an already existing service with an important interurban route they can operate both of them quite effectively and please users of both routes at the same time, surely?

It cant be that important they only use 29 seaters on it and they only get half full of theyre lucky.

Indeed, 35B will continue with another operator as it is a tendered service, it is normal for an operator to cancel a service when the contract ends regardless of whether they win it again or not.  And the change to the 35 I believe is on behalf of Centro to extend the operation of the trial journeys on it.  So no messing around with the service or anything really, other than an operator change on the 35B.

Wonder who has the 35b?

Suppose we can rule out National Express at least,  as they pulled out years ago!

Let's hope it's someone we've heard of!
