Just curious, did 5401 reach Dundee (reported to have broken down en route)?

Only for the summer, there are a couple of tridents working it as well. @BN could this be the future allocation for the 15/16/17 after the changes :)

I traveled on 5421 on 255 all the way from wolvo to merry hill and passed no tridents, just the wonderful hybrids and platinums. The hybrids are great on this route so fast at accelerating

I've just noticed a pretty decent error on the Wolverhampton service changes that took place back in March.



For starters, that 82 is between Wolverhampton and Dudley. There is an 82 that serves Bearwood, but that runs between there and Birmingham. In addition, I can't understand why they'd mention journeys 'towards Walsall', surely towards Bilston would be the easiest way to explain it.

No as there are only enough Platinums for the X7/8 services. We are just utilising the spares in the summer schedules.
