NXWM 1 September 2013 changes

[Kevin]

Arriva 2 evening journeys withdrawn???? I thought theyd registered commercially in some of the journeys? ? So no buses between cannock and walsall? Wow

Isn't there anything through Brownhills or is that route split into two parts evenings and sundays?

[Kevin]

Been thinking about this today, and strikes me as a bit bizarre. Two routes from Boney Hay to Birmingham, with the same number, but two different routes? Confusing much?

The Arriva X56 is going, repalced by the NXWM version it sounds like to me

Touchee, didnt realise the X56 was a tendered service, makes sense I suppose otherwise it wouldn't be such a random terminus

[Nathan4775]

The X56 doesn't carry a Heavy load of passengers at all as thats usally the bus I get from twon home at 17:45

Brownhills is split in evening/sundays. Theres no way there wont be a cannock to walsall service its probably a mistake

School service 886 to come to Walsall

But WA are taking over (:

other than the PerryBeeches - Birmingham
Great Barr School - Birmingham
Theres also a school in sutton a PB bus runs awell not sure of the school nor terminus

what other school runs to PB operate ?

[notepanel]

I believe PB operate the following services - possibly the most out of all garages?

*815 Aston - Sutton via Fairfax & John Wilmott Schools
*828 Perry Beeches - Erdington
*838 Erdington - Fairfax School
*838A Erdington - Fairfax School
*839 Pype Hayes - Fairfax School
*855 Bishop Walsh - Sutton
*869 New Oscott - Plantsbrook School
*870 Erdington - Plantsbrook School
*872 Reay Nadin Drive - Plantsbrook School
*874 Sutton - Bishop Walsh
*879 John Wilmot - Streetly
*888 Perry Beeches - Birmingham

If you stand on Sutton Lower Parade between 0800 and 0900 you will see quite a few of the school buses.

I also Believe WN operate quite a few school services aswell. Anyway back on topic where will AG1 terminate now if it isn't going to serve Town Hall?

[John]

where will AG1 terminate now if it isn't going to serve Town Hall?

It says on NWM either 5 ways to Sheepcote Street on Broad Street

For reason I think it will finish on Sheepcote Street for some reason ?

I suppose it's a  nice easy loop around the round about by the Novotel, back onto Broad street for the Return Leg.

[Kevin]

Always struggled to understand why the 1 does that, so tantalisingly close to the city centre. Still, prefer Sheepcote st to Five Ways, that's even weirder in my eyes

[bususer12]

I suppose when it's the costs of one bus ad driver for a stretch of Broad Street to the Town Hall, the sums don't add up anymore, not sure what loadings were to the very end but i imagine NX have done their research
