Arriva Tamworth

[2206]

Looks like 4412's screen shows a stop that doesn't exist "Ashfurlong Nurseries". No sign of this bus stop at all.
For some reason it comes up as existing on bus times to.

4412 is the only one with a working screen I think.

An 110 E400 was being debranded and some purple livery being vinyl'd on today as I passed the depot. Possible Jubilee livery?

Possible Jubilee livery?

On the passneger notice re bank holiday changes, they have a bus in a jubilee livery. So probably.
I did suspect they'd probably put something into a platinum jubilee livery.

Perhaps there was an issue with the seats.

4413 has no destination displays working today. Paper 110 number on the front with a tiny B'ham on the top corner of the paper.

110 was diverting this afternoon between Mile Oak and Bassetts Pole.
Hints Road, Watling Street, A38 London Road.

Bad experience on the 110 route today. The first bus at Little Green Lanes 4415, went straight past the stop without stopping. Second bus 4600 working 11:55 to Tamworth Town Centre, all seemed ok until it got to Bassetts Pole, where the driver veered off route and went left onto the London Road with no prewarning and then down the A5, taking people miles out of the way from Bassetts Pole stop. I told him he needs to let people know at the stop before he is going to divert. To which he replied he stopped at the bus stop before, so I told him what good is stopping there if he isn't going to tell people its going to divert. Why this one had to divert while a lot of other buses weren't is a bit odd aswell.

On the third bus 4414 12:47 to Birmingham, the driver was constantly moaning through the whole journey and making odd comments, saying is nobody going to answer. It went left at the lights at Mile Oak and took the normal route, then had a moan at a elderly man for boarding his bus at Grainsborough Drive, why he can't board there I don't know as the timetable says it stops there. When met with a 5 minute traffic delay he kept shouting should he just turn round and go back, and someone at the back shouted no.
And he said, its alright for you passengers who just get on the bus to have a sit down. Unbelievable.
