He didn't seem the sort to have a conversation with!

To clarify there wasn't a diversion @Westy

4864 (51) 31/32 yesterday

I think I heard somewhere that's the next vechiele after 5409 comes back

I assume you're ex Shire Oak then?

My niece was there until a few years ago!

No I'm just finished first year at brownhills and I catch the 3 if the 937 and 8 hasn't turned up

I could be totally wrong on this, but I think Shire Oak's 'catchment area' comes as far as Leamore  / North Walsall, as I've seen kids in uniform on the 31/32 from Forest Lane around 7am in the morning.

Assuming the little darlings have some sort of daysaver/travel pass to get there, there's a good chance with the joint arrangement on the 31/32, they have switched to the NX only version of their ticket instead.

Is Shire Oak anywhere near the 10 routes, as that's the only other option I can think of?

Some do catch the 10 but it's 7 minute walk according to google maps for the stop but. Most get on the 8 I remember once they put a solo on the 3 and driver called the depot in brownhills and was asking for a replacement bus cause of the Shire oak. School we had to leave a few kids behind but it was rammed no space at all (this was before the 8 got extended)

From my observations I've seen the 3(Walsall-Cannock) with a cadets just empty especially school time I used the 3 once before the 8 got extended to brownhills and it was packed absolutely rammed half of it was because of the shire oak kids but since the 8 has got extended I haven't seen bearly anyone on them and there running cadets and pulsars on them
By the way this is from my observations

I thought WB run the 45 anyway not PN
