[Bob]

One of their nail deckers X448 just been towed through new invention on back of lorry lol. Probably broke down in service

[Trident 4609]

Yes not long saw it being towed down Lichfield Rd (Past Poundstrecher and The Albion Pub and the Tesco Petrol Station) towards garage

[Bob]

Lol its a good image for them

Lol its a good image for them

Yes of course because only Arriva ever break down, Mansfield must be a figment of my imagination.

[Bob]

They seem to break down more often than other local operators buses do tbf

19 had full load downstairs and a few upstairs

Busiest I've ever seen it anyway

Does see fairly good loadings at peak times and the school run

11:30 journey - peak?? hmm

That would prob equate to about 30 passengers. As theyve got a stupidly low capacity downstairs.  If a lot of them were pensioners/or nbus it still wouldn't generate much of a profit. Ive caught it a few times during the evening peak and its never been particularly busy. Does anyone think the 19 turns a profit?  Seriously?  Lol

Overall no it doesn't bob. Tbh we already have the 59/69/89 on the Lichfield Rd-Wolverhampton corridor and most people use those routes anyway.

Most people have NXWM passes. I don't mind paying for another operator occasionally but I usually wait.

Was refering to rush hour,Not 11:30am. It does get busy with pensioners in the morning but can't really make much of a profit

i know some kids from my school use the 19 and their are a fair few who use it. 4778 did already go past pretty busy this afternoon (Not just OAP's aboard) and that was before some students from my school got on so i wonder how busy it got (I would imagine fairly busy)

It just beats me how so many people decide not to pay a few extra pence for an nBus pass. I can only assume they are not aware of its existence. I'm not complaining though...

Ive noticed far more people buying nBus daysavers rather than normal NX ones

I'd have to disagree, for every nBus day ticket I see at least 10 NX Daysavers being bought
