Quote from: fleetline6477 on July 04, 2022, 07:45:03 PMNow the 50 is back at Tividale could be a Tividale driver who hasn't worked the route for a number of years and forgotten it had been curtailed to Maypole.
About 6 months after NX changed the 12 to operate via City Road & Portland Road I carried on along Sandon Road onto Hagley Road even though I knew the route had changed and had done it on two previous occasions since the change.


Surley the running board shows the start/finish points of the service?

What year was it when it was curtailed at the Maypole? I think the Sunday journeys survived later?

It normally does the loop between 9am and 2pm

It's not a new thing Diamond had announcements before on the 40, 226, 42/43 and the 16 but they didn't last likely that these on the 31/32 probably won't

32237 this week seems to have replaced the Tamworth mellor that was used on the 600.
First time I can remember it having a proper bus since it left Claribels.

30169 on the 326 finally broken down at Willenhall.

(20186 also running 15 minutes late, not helped by picking up 30169 intended passengers! Apparently it had been playing up all day!)

 A few drivers that I've spoken to have said that 30169 is a heap so this is not surprising

Yes except its kept the orange things on the front dest I think.
Makes sense with diamond 16 reducing down to every 20 mins. Some of these will likely be used elcewere instead such as the new 45 route.

Good! That branding has looked an awful mess for a long time! 

The rest of them 16 branded need de-branding now alongside the 40 branded' 32308 and 32309 they look a right mess as well! @Simon Dunn remove the branding off the 40 they are a state sort them out!
