Has anyone got a picture of the new 22 or 310??

[Sh4318]

Anyone know how the X26 and 310 did on their first day?

Anyone know how the X26 and 310 did on their first day?

Didn't notice any issues, the buses I saw were all on time, branded buses on the 310. The X26 interworks with the 226 at Dudley if it hasn't already been stated.

What about the passenger loadings? I presume both routes were fairly quiet given the fact they've just been introduced

The 310 will have the passengers that used the 610

the X26 had quite a few pensioners and a mother with a pushchair get on while I was waiting for the X96 in Dudley earlier

Not sure NWM did either! The only new TT at Wolverhampton was for the 18 and that was in the rack with Arriva';s photocopies.
Walsall did at least seem to have attempted to remove the dead ones.
;

All I found for Walsall on Saturday was the new 10 & 310 timetables. Nothing else new was there.

Even Arriva didn't reissue their Walsall Bus Guide either.

Will have to check later in the week.

still doesn't mention the 22.

On the subject of printing your own, it doesn't seem possible to print the ones on Arriva's website without getting  tables split half way down. I've tried copying them into Word, but that loses the formatting.

Timetables for the 70/71/72 now in at Walsall travel shop. Still no 22

For the people that are wondering if Perry Barr run some journeys on the 70, there are 2 school journeys in the afternoon from Park Hall School, one terminates at Fox & Goose, and the other goes into Birmingham, arriving at 3.43pm. Maybe one of these are ran by Perry Barr. The leaflet only states Birmingham Central as running the 70 though

Yes - I came across it there, but the other link seemed to me the "obvious" one.

Update on Walsall services.

8/8a/89 available.

6/7/7a/35/35a/35b/x35 available.

56/934/935/935a/936/997 was available,  but I had the last one tonight.

Still no 19 in any format (29 also unavailable as it's also on the same leaflet as the 19!)
