Ok, but what about Walsall itself?

Was there a marked drop in patronage, compared to normal?

The b7 alx seem to be quite unloved in General with lots quite vandalised
I love them, they are beasts. I have never been on one and they are nearing their retiring age. I might film one next. They may get so much criticism but they are much better then a lot of buses.

Sorry for my ignorance @Tony but were 4776-81 used because they have tachographs?
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

Correct Stu. All the buses would have had to have been ones that were tachograph fitted.

Anyway, Just there was an Omnilink parked up about 20:05 in Walsall Bus Station with its lights off. A few moments later 857 pulled in on the 29 and set down its passengers  The Omnilink then pulled off and went back towards garage. Any ideas?

Tony, thanks for a fantastic day. All professionally organised and your team of drivers and managers did an excellent job. The Scanias can certainly move!

Legal requirement for private hires...they measure your speed and time spend driving, or at rest

@Trident 4194 did you mean what fleet numbers are tacho fitted?

WN4535 and WA4776 are tacho buses.

4354 always had one at YW when we used it for rallies, not sure if it's been removed now.
