Be up colmore row at 1628pm for a photo exclusive number 9 service

N bus tickets valid in tfwm land all operators 
Daysaver extra valid on nx buses only issued outside tfwm land 
One thing you've all missed is revenue on a daysaver extra ticket Nxwm get full £4.50
When bus is outside tfwm land I think the nbus ticket goes of the ticket machine so only daysaver extra can be issued outside tfwm land 

Well, from a Civil Parking Enforcement point of view, that would be fun (i say sarcastically) as it'd mean that unpaid parking PCNs wouldn't be able to be chased up. I hope the Tories also ban those private parking lot from getting DVLA info as otherwise its going to cause an unfair advantage to them.

Biggest joke ever Dudley council civil parking enforcement 

The diversion for the X8, 9 and X10 is now finished road is now open and buses are using normal line of route.

Was open yesterday down to one lane on the island 

@karl724223 back in the day when me and my mates used to venture to pubs in the deepest Black Country for a pint of Bathams and Banks's and the like, we used to have to take an interpreter with us!! I suspect that's the service @Mike K has performed for us all 😀😀

Yow cor beat a bit ov bathams bostin brew

9, X8 and X10 on diversion this evening via Wolverhampton Rd South, Ridgacre Road to Quinton Church island due to closure of Hagley Road West outbound near the Holly Bush (Toby Carvery).

Ain't that exactly what I posted ?????

2076 at pn tonight so get watching veg web to see where it ends up 

It's only on the 9 brands isn't it or is it all of buses on the 9

All 9 branded buses and I think non branded platinums only 

New destination blinds programmed into the 9 service to commemorate 105 years service 1919-2024 

Noticed 6937 at 06.25hrs this morning, heading back onto Pensnett Trading Estate with "Driver Training" on blinds.

Was this route training, type training or just incorrectly destinated?

Drivers need to be type trained on that bus 
I'll post it again 

On this day 
3rd march 1919 the number 9 started running Birmingham to Quinton 
3rd march 2024 number 9 still running but to Stourbridge now so not bad for 105 years of service for one route 

They used to run some sort of school service from pensnett area you used to see the B10 around the hospital area going towards Dudley 

White solo at pn training engineers 

No, it's not a 'free bus service'.

I would imagine that most of the passengers who use this service are pass-holders anyway (concessionary or otherwise).

Even in the absence of a Ticketer, they can still accept cash for single journeys surely.

Had anybody been on there service or are people just guessing sat at home watching vegweb
