Depends what youd class as busy? A route that 3/4 or even fills a 29 seater bus I wouldnt class as a busy route?

Travelled on the 20 between Bearwood & Oldbury today.

Noticed whenever an oap touched there pass on the reader that a ticket was produced. When i got off i noticed it read "FREE TRAVEL RECEIPT".

Is this normal now?
Pensnett is my local garage. Favourite bus of all time is Fleetline 6360 (KON 360P).

Good question, one point, surely it must increase the amount of ticket rolls they use dramatically.

S251 JUA sounds dreadful. The brakes have sounded bad on it for ages but are now screeching to the point where it can be heard halfway down the road. Take it theyre unable to maintain their buses?

Bob

Its also absolutely filthy inside

I sometimes see a 9 branded vehicle going along Churchill Road in Bentley, turning left towards Bloxwich, around 1730.

Any idea what route that goes onto?

Bob

Apparently some MPD darts are going to be branded up for the new 310. Quality comfortable and modern then lol

Westy

The Arriva liveried vehicles I see 9 times out of 10 look presentable from the outside.

It's just certain vehicles including the red ones that let the side down!
