Bet that went down well with the passengers?

I think the passengers would have been happy at the fact they were on a bus heading home, and not standing out in the cold...

It will have done with the majority as it got them home, and they know what the problem was

According to the Network West Midlands app I use, the last 935 of the day and second to last full 934 should have arrived in Walsall at around 22:20. The 935 was supposed to have arrived in Walsall at 19:59 and the 934 should have arrived at 20:33...I'd hate to think how late they are...I think both are late night buses too...

Took me 1 hour 20 from City to Castle Vale from 17.40. Ended up 76 minutes late in the end so missed the whole of the last trip I had to do (20.20 from City and 20.51 from Castle Vale. A nice 1 hour 2 minute overtime claim tonight

No Buses are serving Pheasey atm, apparently the locals aren't very happy!

Debatable, they know up in Pheasey how bad the roads get

Now Perry Beeches haven't got any buses. People aren't happy at all, especially that they have to do a walk up to Tower Hill to get a bus. One person said to me, 'It's a joke, Beeches Road, Thornbridge and Hassop Road have been gritted and they decide not give us any Buses!' They've said they complained, I really don't get these people, I assume they've never ridden a bus in the snow Beeches Road. When the snow was melting away in December, 1871 slid down most of Beeches Road, the driver even said that Perry Beeches is atrocious when the snow is melting.

When 6728 arrived at the Scott arms on x51 at 19.45 this evening, it was shown to be 150 minutes late on the ticket machine, my longest ever commute from city on there.
