I know, I was surprised to see the frequency increase too.  It's nice that with so many services being cut that the 141 / 145 as actually been improved as a result of the bus review.

What service r the 2 darts for

Liverpool Street

145? Is that the old Midland Red route? What's the 141?

I could search for it but meh, I'd thought I'd give my members something to do.

One thing Daimler Mercedes Benz are good at is producing excellent Diesel engines, I do miss the sound of the 0405n for all its faults you couldn't knock that 12 litre engine.

Droitwich to Bromsgrove...although I could have said jokingly MH to Birmingham :-)

Think it was, but believe it or not I genuinely remember the 145 as being a TWM route, hourly from brum as per the 146 to west heath, then cofton - barnt green - Blackwell - lickey end - Bromsgrove using Lynxes!

Also, 141 is the indirect route Bromsgrove via Stoke Prior to Droitwich
Now in exile in Oxfordshire....

145

Bromsgrove

Longbridge

Lickey End, Burcot, Barnt Green

Diamond Bus



The 145 is an infrequent route operated by Diamond Bus. In the past it has been operated by Travel West Midlands[2] and First Midland Red. The full route used to run from Birmingham to Bromsgrove via the Pershore road, however it was curtailed to Cotteridge when taken over by Zak's Buses in 2003 (later Central Connect and Diamond Bus).[27] First Midland Red took over the route in September 2011 when it was revised to run between Bromsgrove and Longbridge only.[27]

In March 2013, First's Redditch operation (which runs this service) was sold to Diamond Bus who have continued operation on this route.[1]
