Arriva Tamworth

[2206]

While on Traveline etc... 765 isn't shown to be running, the leaflet from Tamworth Library, dated 7th January 2017, says otherwise

The Arriva website shows there being no sunday service on the 765 as well.

Has the timetable changed since January, I didn't think it had so clearly there is a mix up of some description.

ARRIVA MIDLANDS NORTH LTD
Route: Tamworth, Corporation Street to Lichfield Bus Station
Service number: X65 (765)

I didn't think that they had cut the Sunday service. Kept that quiet! (Presuming that Traveline etc... is correct.) - unless my leaflet was wrong in January anyway...

Tamworth to Walsall isn't exactly that far is it? And it just uses one bus on Sunday

Branding seems to have gone to pot. Hockley Hopper branded 3004 was on the 4/5/7 on the 6th and similar 3006 is on the 4/5/7 today. I saw a normal livery bus on the 65 today. There is so much new competition around at present - 3B - 4 - 9A/C - 12 (competing with parts of 5 and 785/6) - that I think it is beyond a bit of branding to solve the problem! Route 4 seemed almost to have more buses than passengers when I watched it this morning.

"Hockley Hopper" branded Mercs 3004 and 3006 are both on the 4/5/7 today.

Mira branded 3501 on the 110 today
