Walsall Garage

[Tony]

Just saw a trident heading up to Walsall garage. Didn't catch the number though. Is this coming to Walsall garage for service?

Probably one of Walsall's

I've seen it happen but it's a rarity when it does. I don't think it's happened this year yet but I could be wrong especially when 2 don't track.

The reason isn't so much unreliability it's when parts are required NX haven't got a parts contract for them so have to order and wait for delivery. Whereas they pay AD a lot of money per month to have next day delivery for a lot of routine parts at no extra cost

Just drove past Six Ways Walsall and there seemed to be an issue involving the revenue inspectors and a passenger onboard the X51 waiting there. Police were present.

It's Walsall, what do you expect?

What sort of comment is that?

Everyone perfect where you live?

The police are with revenue regularly

Just heard a couple of drivers in Walsall bus station talking about how they are inheriting WN 69 and potentially losing the 41 just wondering if anyone could clarify if it's factual or just rumours many thanks

Who would the 41 go to, unlike the 69 I believe all of it's journeys terminate at their terminus of Willenhall and Walsall, would Wolverhampton the only logical Garage be able to incorporate it into there routes and rota. The 41 of an evening works with the 6 and 37 and of a day interworks with the 8, the 69 could be put back onto the Beechdale rota easily, WA have operated the 69 in the past, but the 41 has always been WA's Route so I would be surprised if that is being lost
