Service 69 Weoley Castle - Solihull Should be re-instated 8)
Service 997A B;ham - Kingstanding should be re-insated I miss that route in the mornings  ::)
Service 992 should be re-instated as that was a direct route from Kingstanding - Streetly
Service 77 Sutton - Walsall - re-instated to operate Via Kingstanding Circle

Thats all, feel free to post others that you would like to be re-instated,

Its just my opion you dont have to agree

What happended to the Super 16 branding and the buses that used to be on them, havent saw them in ages ???

Can someone tell who or what are Shonker trains, I was on the 97A today (Blue Diamond) and looked to my right to see a train, possible towards New Street where it had a red drivers cab with "SHONKER TRAINS" and 4 carriges, I'd just like a little more info on this please

Does anybody remeber when Diamond operated the 451, why did they withdrawn


Does Black Diamond still run services on the 9 (Stourbridge - B'Ham)


What other routes do Diamond acompany NXWM other than,
Service 16
Service 50
Service 97
Service 17
Service 37

What happended to AMPM and there buses and there drivers

Is it me or are WA re-instating B6LE's which were supposed to be withdrawn ?

Can any1 help me out with this im quite confused

Would it be possible to extended the 957 to Chelmsley Wood, Pine Square.


Also would it be possible to change some of the services & frequency in Birmingham City Centre e.g.

Service's 22/23/24/29/29A all serve the Birmingham Markets
61/63 reduced frequency because an every 2-7 minute frequency is unneccesary so change it o every 10 minutes on 61/63 along bristol rd

^ changes like those above, i can think of many more but i dont think most people would approve tbf

Is it possible that Birmighams Hyrbid buses can be placed on other routes in Birmingham not just the 22/23 on Sundays, becuase if im correct the 22/23 only need 4 buses as they operate every 30 mins. So therfore meaning there is still 14 hyrbid buses left over

IF ITS POSSIBLE some could be placed elsewhere on Sundays to Brighten some routes up e.g. some on the 24/97/14 probally the 61/63/45/47 if theres any left just to Brighten the routes up a little. Or is that not possible ?

I think it would look qutie nice to see a Hybrid bus working the 14 of a Sunday or on the 97 i know a Hybrid Volvo B5L got onto the 97 before an looked quite good on there in my eyes .

Is it possible for NXWM to invest in some more of these great buses for other garage e.g. WB/YW/PB

[Journey to Birmingham takes the minimum of 45/50 minutes (74 takes 60/70mins) 120 (takes 77mins) the 140 (takes 40 mins of an evening & 50 in the daytime posibbly 60 @ peak times) 126 (120 mins) 87 (52/62 minutes)]

Is it possible for NXWM to introduce a service that operates Between Dudley & Chelmsley Wood. The reason I ask is becuase I was up Dudley today an I had to get a route to Birmingham City Centre then a route to Chelmsley Wood which wasnt much fun as A Journey to Birmingham takes the minimum of 45/50 minutes (74 takes 60/70mins) 120 (takes 77mins) the 140 (takes 40 mins of an evening & 50 in the daytime posibbly 60 @ peak times) 126 (120 mins) 87 (52/62 minutes) . An alternative route is to Merry Hill then the 141 which takes even longer.

It would be nice if NXWM introudced a faster service to Birmingham if possible. But what would be great is if there was a fast BUS service from Dudley - Chelmsley Wood Via Birmingham ;D ;D. Quite a few people would probally benift highly from that route I can image becuase there would be a direct service from Dudley - Birmingham & A direct service from Birmingham - Chelmsley Wood

The fastest bus to Birmingham From Dudley would probally be the 140
The fastest Bus to Birmingham from Chelmsley Wood would be the 14/97

Is it just me or are Birminghams B6LE's sneaking onto quite a few Birmingham Central Routes ??

Did any else know

142, 257 were Arriva operate :o :o :o

Is Bordsley Green Garage the Smallest Garage In Birmingham Becuase I went in there today & Birmingham Central Garage and Bordsley look extremely small like it could only fit 30 buses in there.

Birmingham was quite Big but not as big as Wolverhampton 8) 8)

I soppted 9505 on Kettlehouse Road in Kingstanding today (Volvo buses) can some1 tell me what its Original Fleet number was please

is it just me or Do Central Connect & Claribels operate diffrent routes to NXWM on the 71 ??

Will the new emmison apply to all buses companys that operate to B'Ham or just NXWM ??

Was WA's enviro400's ment for the 51 route as most there buses are now branded for that route ??.
