Hydrogen vehicles

Is there a Hydro doing a X51 board, as I spotted one going up Bloxwich Road towards Cannock about half 6 this morning?

Didn't think they could go to Cannock because of a tree along the route being on private land causing them trouble.

No idea where the silly private land story has come from. The only reason they didn't go to Cannock was waiting for a tree to be trimmed.

I think there was one on the 997 at one point where there was difficulty stated on here getting it trimmed, which may be the source of that confusion. I'm pretty sure they've been on the X51 before (although possibly short workings?)

I seem to remember there was either a Highways Act or Road Traffic Regulation Act provision regarding trimming overhanging trees (planted on private land) for safety reasons but possibly subject to giving notice (thus a slightly longer process).

Is it true the hydrogen buses aren't staying at Walsall due to planning permission being refused to have refill facilities being refused if so where will they go to.

If true, suspect a depot without residential within spitting distance?

Would've said Pensnett, as we know that is on a Trading Estate, but seeing they got shot of the diesel ones to Walsall, maybe not.

Whatever replaces Brum Central, I guess otherwise, unless they get shot of them completely?

Isnt there facillities at Perry Barr, or planned to be?

Does the planning permission issue affect electric charging equipment as well?

Depends on where you heard this from.

There's no such planning application listed on the Walsall council website.

Similar story to 'Can't run to Cannock because Staffordshire Fire service won't accept them' all stupid stories invented by people to fit their agenda.

A Nx employee said this I just wanted to make sure weather it was true or not.

I've heard there's plenty of hot air there already so not exactly new 😀🤣

Clearly someone saw you coming then!

I suspect there are a fair few NX employees who like to feed 'duff information' to enthusiasts, just to see how far it spreads.

To be fair I did read this somewhere a while ago (can't recall where) but didn't find anything on the Walsall planning site to back it up

Exactly, a planning application can't be refused if one hasn't been submitted.

Unless I'm looking in the wrong place?

I do apologise I just wanted to ask

The hydrogens appear to be very religious, not done any work since the 22nd.
