Hopefully inflation is down to at least 4% by then.

There's a new act of parliament going through both houses that relates to abuse staff suffer at work.   If passed it gives employees rights to sue the bosses.

As someone said before you have the LFZ tickets such as Walsall and how do you police passengers say on the 4/45, 5 going past the cut of point, as if you put revenue inspectors at those stops passengers will catch on to where the inspectors are.

Isn't that the point?

Passengers get used to stops where the revenue team wait and don't go past them?

Very True That, whats happening with the Smallbrook Queensway revenue check point is fare dodgers get off at the Raddison stop the one before, in Smethwick fare dodgers come off at Galton Bridge stop before ASRA check point, The hardcore non payers just walk past inspectors in any case unless backed by the police.

 Inspectors??  Yeah.. where are they when you need one?? I would like to 
 offer my thanks(NOT) to PB.. It may have escaped their notice that the X city
 Rail line twixt Lich TV and BNS is out of action for 4 days due to ongoing
 Engineering work...? Had it not occurred to management that passengers
 would likely patronize their X3  X4  X5 and X14 services??? This appears to have been
 the case ..Unfortunately The return svcs booked between 18.49 pm and 19.29 pm 
 on Saturday evening   (8th April) failed to materialize with no on going services available to the 30+ passengers left in the cold in central Bham??  No doubt due to lack
 of Management forethought and/or driver O/T refusal and/or Relief??/ Maybe if they Don't need the O/t they dont need a pay rise?  Can we expect better at whitsun I wonder??  
Mind the Gap.....?:-)

The 19:10 X3 ran, that was 6812 as recorded by Bustimes  6812 - SN66 WDS – National Express West Midlands – bustimes.org

 I was not suggesting it didn't run... but not an ONWARD service from central Bham..obviously   an X4 arrived at 19 29pm with a Tamworth 110 Immediately behind it  ...

What do you mean not an onward service from Central Birmingham?
The tracking appears to show that journey ran as scheduled from the City Centre through to Hill Hook. The same goes for 6868 on the BC X14.
