Yardley Wood Garage

Well what would you call it when enforcement officers can't do their mundane job in broad daylight without being attacked because the local residents don't like it?

One incident that makes the press, doesn't make it a 'no-go' area.

Tesco are issuing all their staff with bodyworn cameras because of assaults in stores, does that makes all Tescos no go areas.

NXWM revenue inspectors get assaulted occasionally all over the West Midlands, does that make the whole of the West Midlands a 'no-go areae

Z buses confusing inspectors on Moor Street today with their weird fleetnumbers and all over dark grey livery. 'It's on loan' shouted the driver.

As well as the wolverhampton 5 being withdrawn from the 5th November, it appears the 27 is being curtailed to run Yardley Wood to Frankley from the same date. With the sections to the Maypole and Cofton Hackett being withdrawn. As the start and finish point have changed on variation 56.

@John Stait,

None of those are noteworthy, Euro 6 Deckers on City Services.

4612 on the 50 is noteworthy. However, ALX400s are more uncommon than rare when on the 50.

None of the workings in this thread are noteworthy. Bus on bus service.

Tridents do appear on the 50, especially in the peaks.

As Tony would say Yardley Wood bus on Yardley Wood service

Just curious why are the short journeys on the  no 2 traditional Warstock terminus Arlington Grove moving to Oxhill rd, could it linked to complaints for householders. Just curious really.

Its just the last journeys of the day, they don't actually terminate at Oxhill Road, they continue on to the bus garage where they finish.

1931 - which wasn't tracking this morning - was already rammed when I got on at Hullbrook Road (0800 journey towards city).

Looking on BusTimes, I am going to assume this was because the 0744 journey did not operate rather than just didn't track, which would explain why it was so full.

[Stu]

Half hour wait for a bus this evening from Auckland Road in Sparkbrook, as a 2, then a 3, then another 2 passed by, all rammed full single decks.

I really hope this next delivery of electrics is going to Yardley Wood so they can start getting rid of these Scanias, because they are really struggling to cope in the evening peaks, especially when people are using the 2 and 3 from city when there are gaps in the 6 services.

I'm hoping for the same at Perry Barr.

Yes, it may as well be 'no bus' if the bus that turns up can't pick any more passengers up because it is already rammed full!
