Is there a change due on the 41, as NX have put some Evening & Sunday journeys on from 24/7, partly replacing their 40, albeit between Walsall & New Invention only?

(I'm willing to guess the end date for the current Arriva contract is later than the NX start date!)

I've seen 2269 parked up on the woodland estate in short health. Can someone tell me where the driver was at 19:49?
It got passed by 2257 five minutes later

I would think 99.9% of passengers couldn't care less as long as the bus turns up on time

Bob

I dunno....I'm sure many can tell quality from tat. Why do you think stuff like platinum etc increases ridership?  With the exception being Arriva's Sapphire 1 & 2...where they actually reduced the frequency after upgrade cos it weren't getting enough passengers flmaoooo

The only Walsall service without a timetable leaflet in Walsall Travelshop, 6 or 7 months after a change, despite both me & NWM informing them so!
