Dont know whether this is the right thread or not, but is there a reason why Im seeing various Wolverhampton vehicles both in crimson & grey with missing bits of fleetnames?

New panels from accident damage at a guess.

First time I've heard of a service being diverted due to a Funeral service. Of the top of my head the 34, 37, 39, 69, 79 and 529 all run past Cemetries and They have never been diverted due to a funeral proccesions. The 34/37/39 Is Fallings Heath on Walsall Road, 69 is Willenhall Lawn Cemetery, the 79 passes Bilston Cemetery just off the Bilston Road and the 529 passes Bentley Cemetery.

Pn service 2/2A usually gets diverted due to funerals on nanny goat farm 

Wanna know the solution to that? Don't open your doors until the passengers are ready to alight

You open the doors for passengers to get off but passengers get on before they have got off. Read what was posted  another bright spark 

The platinum I had on the 9 today had updated NSA   library metro 

What pisses me off is passengers getting on the bus as soon as the doors open before the passengers on the bus have got off then they are in the way on the platform gets my goat up that does 

Hagley road services that go via Quinton area tonight on diversion in and around brandhall area 

West midland police are now running the service using riot minibuses

It went round the corner for stripping of parts not damaged

Back on 12 January, I bought a new car and decided to catch the bus to collect it rather than remortgage my house for an Uber. I work extensively with bus operators, though rarely as a passenger so the perfect opportunity to do a review.

Firstly, caught WN2076 on a 9 from Wednesfield to Bloxwich at 18.23hrs - on time and a very pleasant female driver who arrived on time and allowed a couple of elderly passengers sit down before pulling away. Paid by contactless and sat in the single seat opposite the driver. Not a great deal of leg room but a fantastic view of the road ahead and the cab. Very smooth and courteous driver, bus very clean and amazingly still on time when I got off at Bloxwich with the traffic.

Next bus was WA6758 on X51 from Bloxwich to Birmingham. Again, very polite and courteous driver - very smooth drive even with the frequent stops and the occasional miscreant boy racer cutting up the bus! Very surprised (from a build aspect, rather than driver!) how very few rattle and how good the condition of both buses were considering their age.

And as for the value, having paid contactless on each bus, very well worth the £2 fare on each bus. Took me right back to my younger days catching the 560 and 951!

Nice work NX!

Thought you had a oap pass 😂
