Quick question for @Central Buses Just downloaded your new timetable for 142 and noticed the picture of the bus in your livery looks like a Wright Pulsar which you haven't got unless you have some ordered?

Long dart on 125

And? They get on the 125 all the time along with the entire Central Buses fleet (apart from deckers).

Central Buses are launching a sale for tickets in Tamworth until August.

Just noticed that the 108 operated by Central Buses will run via Penns Lane and through Erdington rather than Eachelhurst Road and Tyburn Road. A big mistake in my opinion as it is very well used down this stretch of road. We didn't pick too many people up on Penns Lane when we ran the 115.

It also looks like it will be a circle service finishing in Erdington, and will serve Lower parade in Sutton too

Central Buses are to operate the S1 service from June.

That looks a very strange route. And i can't imagine anyone travelling from Erdington out to walmley and new Hall that early in the morning

This ticket that is valid for Central Buses, Midland Classic,  D&G and Select....
Do Midland Classic actually sell it? Or is it just a Central Buses ticket that's valid on other companies?
I only ask because I found out to my cost this morning that Select Buses don't and kinda ruined my plans for the day lol...

They all sell it. Unfortunately you've probably come across a driver who's never been asked for one or hasn't been briefed, they always exist with any company.
