Central Buses

[BK63 YWP]

Quick question for @Central Buses Just downloaded your new timetable for 142 and noticed the picture of the bus in your livery looks like a Wright Pulsar which you haven't got unless you have some ordered?

This morning the X16 operating via Junction 5, Castle Vale, A47 and Nechells. Rather its normal line of route via Minworth.

X16 was going along  newtown row to night to Tamworth

Any port in a storm, so to speak
Been some creative diversions the last two days I have to say

And? They get on the 125 all the time along with the entire Central Buses fleet (apart from deckers).

Central Buses are launching a sale for tickets in Tamworth until August.

Just noticed that the 108 operated by Central Buses will run via Penns Lane and through Erdington rather than Eachelhurst Road and Tyburn Road. A big mistake in my opinion as it is very well used down this stretch of road. We didn't pick too many people up on Penns Lane when we ran the 115.

It also looks like it will be a circle service finishing in Erdington, and will serve Lower parade in Sutton too

That looks a very strange route. And i can't imagine anyone travelling from Erdington out to walmley and new Hall that early in the morning

Central Buses are going to operate the S1 Solihull Circular via Damson Wood, every 30 minutes.

This ticket that is valid for Central Buses, Midland Classic,  D&G and Select....
Do Midland Classic actually sell it? Or is it just a Central Buses ticket that's valid on other companies?
I only ask because I found out to my cost this morning that Select Buses don't and kinda ruined my plans for the day lol...

They all sell it. Unfortunately you've probably come across a driver who's never been asked for one or hasn't been briefed, they always exist with any company.

Driver knew it exists, but said he doesn't sell them
