1836 broke down today in oldbury interchange and needed a helping hand from RS recovery back to garage.

Are there any updates on 4959 and whether it's worth it for it to get repaired or not or if it's going to be withdrawn?

6761 tracked as a 39 from Walsall Garage to Walsall Bradford Place. Before that 2133 did the same then turned into a 4 to Blackheath. I'm guessing the platinum is not for the 39... any idea what's going on?

If 6761 came off the School runs it was probably meant to be a 34 or 37 and the Driver programmed the destination and Ticket machine wrong. 2133 could have done either a 34, 37 and 39 after doing a school Route there is occasionally a journey that does the Darlaston routes and goes onto the 4

I saw 6727 going across the top of the market by St Matthews church just before lunchtime heading to Bradford Place then it came back 5 minutes later. There was drivers on the bus so I assumed that it was dropping them off in Bradford Place.

The 39 can't have a double decker, due to the low bridge near Bradford place. Volvos are also not allowed on the 39 again due to the low bridge. I did think scanias was taller than the Volvos but clearly not the case.

On Saturday I will be travelling to Lichfield getting the bus there is fine 12:00 8 to Lichfield, coming back 17:42 or 18:17 I know the 8 takes an hour is there any quicker Buses that I could get on that meet the number 8 does the 10 meet if so is there much difference. I would check Bustimes but I don't know if the Number 10 does meet the Number 8 at all.

10 and 8 meet in Brownhills, but by the time you've hung around for a 10 I can't imagine it saving you any time.

Just use the TfWM Journey Planner or Google Maps, that will show you the best way to get back.

The last Chaserider 36 off Lichfield is 17:30 I believe, which then gets into Walsall and does the 18:30 back to Lichfield and then runs dead from Lichfield back to Cannock to depot.
