Scanias fit under the bridge, I was involved in checking when they were first delivered to Walsall, there is about 10 inches to spare.

Here is 1883 on the test run

If you look up timetables for their new services you get this internet address for the 327
https://arrivabus.co.uk/hilltop-service-327/
which seems to suggest to me the garage is in Hilltop. As there were several rumours thet the garage was the old Pete's Travel garage in Hilltop I expect this is probably the correct location!

Arriva are not cancelling the 112 service, just transferring it back to Burton Depot from Cannock. Burton depot runs on 'Stevensons' license so the 112 has been reregistered by Stevensons

Walsall are to receive some B10Ls to replace B6s, I believe 7129 is already there

BG59 FYF is currently in Walsall paintshop

I have actioned a new feature anybody can use - The calender. Just click on calender above and anyone can post events on there that they think might be of interest to other members

Does anyone know where my fav bus 528 Crusader is now?

Last I knew it was in Lea Hall

Both returned to Miller Street a couple of weeks ago, 412 was sent to the 'car park' with all the other Excels, 401 remained at Miller Street

You mean this one

I don't really know! I had just got off my train arond 9am on 17th March (a Saturday) and saw it pulling in on Platform 12 with passengers on. I went over to see what it was doing and get the photo, but all screens on 12 were not showing any departures and the crew just left it there

No & No, sorry

There are 30 new midibuses already on order

They are doing quite a bit of internal work on it before it enters service

Tony, is 4176 in exactly the same livery as 4177?

4176 outside Walsall paintshop today

Waiting to go in, not finished!

3 solos were dead when I went in PB today, one, 287, has not yet been used at PB
