@BlackCountryBusSpotter, B7's are far from noteworthy on the 4's, they appear everyday on there!

This forum has always been on one rule for one and one for another. And it's always members who have been on here years getting told off when it's newer members constantly filling up the forum with crap.

Quote from: West_Brom/WalsallBusGeek on February 13, 2024, 05:41:41 PMWell you could say it's a review of the incompetence of a WB driver.
Yep so not of the bus itself? Maybe the WB garage thread was the best for that.

Quote from: Michael Bevan on February 13, 2024, 07:53:59 AMFollowing on from my post the other day, I had a ride on YX11 AEE to Bloxwich this morning. Much better than AEO the other day. Cab assault screen was evident, working CCTV is shown on the vehicle and to top it off I had a nice/happy driver who was telling me the service has apparently been quite busy over the last couple of days (which I can believe as 16 people boarded the service which I caught on Sunday)!
I'm sure the regulars are more than happy they have a company who aren't finishing early again too!

Quote from: West_Brom/WalsallBusGeek on February 13, 2024, 12:20:51 PMI'm confused as to why the driver of 4506 on the 5 drove straight past me even after signalling to him to stop. Disappointing.
Hows that a review if the bus itself?

You're best off making a complaint to NX themselves then to moan on a public forum.

Quote from: 2206 on February 12, 2024, 05:23:13 PMI was on 6864 earlier this afternoon and the next stop announcement onboard display was blank while the vehicle was moving. When it came to a bus stop it came on briefly and then it turned off again similar to what @Materplan said above.
I noticed a few weeks ago 7522 was doing the same thing. So it might be a fault on some of the BC vehicles maybe @Tony?

All the ones I've caught lately on the X2 to and from work have been doing that.

Quote from: Trident 4194 on February 02, 2024, 06:15:28 PMAny idea when 4125 will reappear?
It's not withdrawn why post that here?

It was out on the 51 last week.

Quote from: Mike K on January 31, 2024, 11:58:04 PMExcept the X21/22. They literally miss just a single stop on Bath Row and are anything but express. Quite the contrary in fact.
Same goes for the X64, the route that got moved round how many times and then magically became 'limited stop' according to the displays.

Quote from: Wba_lad on January 31, 2024, 08:59:56 PMI'm sorry but you clearly need explaining too, weather it's for 1 hotspot or 40 hotspots, the service was still running 25 mins late which is what this thread is for, you always have somthing to say and annoy me, you do it to me a lot, bus was 25 mins late and was logged in this thread so you don't need to comment. I completely agree with you, he is always judging somone, this is what this thread is for, he is always doing it to me too and it is very annoying, he thinks he knows everything. He never gave you attitude, there is no need for your stupid judgement comments.
You are not admin and I will post if i chose to. Only person moaning is you no one else.

Quote from: West_Brom/WalsallBusGeek on January 31, 2024, 05:20:45 PMStill nonetheless late. No need for your judgment aswell.
No need for your attitude either, I politely made a point.

Quote from: West_Brom/WalsallBusGeek on January 31, 2024, 05:15:00 PM4518 running 25ish minutes late on the 5. Probably due to traffic coming out of West Brom.
Judging by the time you posted it, there's about 5/6 hotspots that route gets caught in at rush hour, nothing new or unusual.

Quote from: karl724223 on January 29, 2024, 02:45:35 PMYou open the doors for passengers to get off but passengers get on before they have got off. Read what was posted  another bright spark
Well then they shouldn't stand up and start walking when the bus has opened its doors?

I've noticed that's become an issue ever since Covid.

Quote from: Trident 4194 on January 29, 2024, 02:29:21 PMWanna know the solution to that? Don't open your doors until the passengers are ready to alight
Agreed, yet the drivers bang on about 'conflict avoidance' that's one way of avoiding it!
