To be honest it was the 639 & the 38 I was refering to.

And it may be a short distance from Kings Hill to Darlo BS but the elderly & infirm wouldnt agree.

As Ive said before, I live on the section of the 2 in Leamore that is the daytime diversion.

You can say I could walk around onto Bloxwich Road, where there is more buses, but my old mum & others like her rely on that 2 as they cant walk far, in fact we have a stop right outside our house, so its easy!

Is the Perton Bus Barrier broken for the umpteenth time? Given the variety on the 10.

What's happened to 4797 btw?

DVSA work on a 'Traffic Light' system where each operator is either Green, Amber or Red depending on previous history. If they have a choice of two vehicles to check they will always choose a Red operator over an Amber one, and an Amber one over a Green one.

If when they finish a check the only other bus available is a green one they will check that.

So it could be pure chance, or it could be Arriva Midlands North is an Amber operator, so gets chosen over Green ones.

So just to confirm 4783 has replaced 4786? And 4797 seems to have vanished. Unless Wednesfield are getting replacements for them from elsewhere before 1st Jan?

I only keep asking because I've grown fond of the DLA's before any smart arse keyboard warriors pipe up.
