Is there any reason why Diamond operate a different diversion to Nx?

(Dunno about Chaserider, as I haven't caught their 74 for a few days!)
Not sure but diamond are missing 3 stops to NX

Chaserider 74 are following Diamond

1886 has been involved in a accident on bloxwich road with a cyclist, the cyclist is known to have serious injuries my thoughts go out to the driver and the cyclist families at this time

To be honest, I didn't come back via Walsall tonight,  to see if they followed the diversion correctly,  as I came back from Willenhall on a 326, & I've been catching the first 1 down my road in the morning!
Interestingly diamond are going via green lane except for 1 which follows the NX diversion

I swear Acocks green still have remaining red and white scanias and 4658 which is red and white?
Walsall have 1834 and 1835 in red and white i presume they will be painted shortly.

Bloxwich road buses are going via Green lane then turning right at the KFC to re-join at Leamore due to roadworks for 6 weeks except for the 19 which seems to be following the 29 route up to harden also a buses going back to the depot are going via Green lane or the 29 route. Buses are coming down from Bloxwich on normal line of routes

I have noticed that the first 23 of the day seems to be duplicated to help with school loadings SD63 KFA seems to be the duplicate which then goes onto the 24s

1758 broke down on the 29 near blakenall about 19:30
1773 has come and replaced it
