NXWM 8/X8 timetable

[Wibble]

I was just planning a visit to Dudley beer festival on Thursday & thought i'd check out the X8 service. I downloaded the 8/X8 timetable PDF from the NX website & it's confusing the hell out of me. Nearly all X8's from Wolverhampton to Birmingham work throughout yet going the other way all but one appear to terminate at Blackheath! Surely the majority should work the whole route? Can someone please convince me i'm not going senile!

Additionally there are X8's at 1714, 1748 & 2315 from Wolverhampton to Dudley only, but these have all been slotted into an incorrect chronological sequence.

Cheers ... Richard

This is the timetable. Nothing from Birmingham finishes in Blackheath
X8 - Birmingham - Wolverhampton – National Express West Midlands – Bus Times

Looks like there is an error in the way they present their timetable data.

You can see the correct timetable on the BusTimes website:
https://bustimes.org/services/x8-birmingham-wolverhampton-via-blackheath-dudley

You can also download the PDF timetable from the TfWM website:

Must admit i checked Bustimes first & that was ok but a friend that i'm travelling with downloaded the PDF from the NXBus website & was adamant that the x8 doesn't go to Dudley from Birmingham
