Quote from: D10 on November 22, 2023, 08:15:47 PMIf the story is correct than it must have been by one of TfWM's monitoring staff who would check amongst other things that bus station rules are being followed.
They can't fine you only report a incident

Quote from: Wumpty on November 16, 2023, 09:39:57 PMAnd that's the $64,000 question - are all of the breakdowns on here actually correct and reflective of the supposed poor service.

I don't recall seeing any concerns in the monthly TC updates, not anything in the trade press.

I'm sure if things were *that* bad that the TC would be atop of things.
If it was that bad wouldn't the local councillors be jumping all over this in the press so as to get there photo in the local papers

Quote from: Tony on October 26, 2023, 09:01:21 PMWA Engineers have just about got used to them now, and they are as reliable as they have ever been, most time off the road now is waiting for parts, and 3304 is currently off the road where a car came through a red light straight into the front of it.

Moving them to another garage where no-one has seen them before would end up with them off the road most of the time like they were when they first arrived at WA
Pensnett don't want them back either 😂
