Just out of curiosity, who is the voice actor @Tony? If you're aware obviously.

I'm hopeful it will be Brian Blessed  :D :D - wake up some of those slumbering people referred to in another thread..... or maybe Frank Skinner, to get it in regional mode  ;D

Frank Skinner would have been an epic choice!

I love Walsall buses

Regarding next stop announcements - will the actor be told of the correct pronunciation of the stop names?
As Weoley Park Rd for example was pronounced Wholey Park Rd, this doesnt sound professional.

Jervoice Road sounded horrible too.

The X70 isn't a platinum route at the minute though.
The main allocation is E400 at the minute, some generic platinum branding on them would be nice.

There's an absolutely massive queue by the 45/47 stop half way down the road by New Street. Is there an event on or something, or massive delays?

If you haven't noticed, there are no trains on the Cross City Line, as per several posts.

Having been part of the queue yesterday and guessing it's the same tonight I bailed off my train at Smethwick GB and have walked up for the 48, long trip home now on 4246!

Do B7RLEs from the X21 move onto the X20/X22 in the evenings? 2140 was on the X20 earlier

Ha ha! Other than at Selly Oak, traffic was good going that way so got back to Cotteridge about 5 past 6! Which might have been quicker than going through Brum...
