VERY Late running services

[MasterPlan]

Don't know what the cause is but the 14s appear to be in a spot of bother this afternoon.
The "Chelmsley Wood 14E" display still makes me laugh though. Must be the most unhelpful display going right now.

That is not a surprise is it on such a rottern totally incomptent bus route run by on operator not fit for purpose I once had the last X8 on Sunday due at 23.57 at The Stag 90mins late yes 90mins late after coming out of The Stag Sizzler how anyone can defend the X8 on this forum is beyond me! well @Tony and other WN staff what's your latest excuse for this observation it looks to me total incompetence from your so called bus company? Ha Ha bus company I do like a good laugh- How much longer must Blackheath put up with this total incompetence for the good people of Blackheath it's no laughing matter perhaps the answer is to put a clapped out old Trident on the route in a stupid forgotten livery no one bothers about that will do nicely wont it well thats the answer from West Midlands Travel isnt it?

There's a company running buses across the West Midlands in 'a forgotten livery' of Hansons, Central and Wessex. Any idea what the company is called? At least NXWM buses are in previous liveries of the company not still in liveries of companies taken over years ago!

Have just counted a total of seven 74s passing through Hockley Circus, within the space of 5 minutes, with all but one carrying on into the City Centre - the exception terminated at Hockley

Is it The Birmingham Coach Company Limited that's another forgotten company name running them? Mind you remember there is a NXWM bus regularly on the X8 in a livery 51 years out of date so pluss a Blue & Cream  B7 straight out of 1977 so isnt that a bit of pot and kettle?

So they are heritage liveries hun. NX especially painted them to remember those by gone days. Hanson's bus, central buses and Wessex buses still in their old companies liveries and several in each looking scruffy. I mean diamond could of got the ones repainted in 3 years? NX repaints up to 20 at a time?

Diamond are focusing on their NW ops trying to get those buses into livery just wished they focused on getting their uniform livery done in the West Midlands
